Hi Rainy, I love the sound of your Oscar.
I agree with your comment about people panic at the slightest thing and its usually the thing that they don't need to panic about, and yet ignore the things they should be addressing.

Thanks, we are totally smitten.

I love the way it has changed our family life and can't imagine not having him but there were days at the beginning where i thought maybe getting a puppy with a 5 & 2 year old and a childminding business was not the smartest thing i ever did.

PF has really helped me chill out and see things from Oscars perspective rather than trying to get such a tiny baby to conform. Firm but fair & consistent is the way to go. With lots of cuddles !!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks peeps

Once again. thanks for all the advice - it's all very much appreciated

Took her for a carried walk around the block this morning and when we got home, put her straight in her bed in the crate, and she just zonked out, no whining, nothing!!

Loving this site, btw

Be warned it's very addictive.

I remember taking Oscar everywhere ina rucksack before he could go on the ground. Seems ages ago now. Think there is a picture of it on my profile
