Thanks Ro, yes I think throwing him in at the deep end is what I will try to do, walk in places with plenty of dogs and I will try the loose long lead bit, if my arm comes out of it's socket I may not be able to give you an update

My goodness Monty knows how to wag, when I come home I always greet Sadie first and Monty wags his whole body and usualy wags his body into Sadie knocking her out the way and then proceeds to wag his tail whopping her in the face with it! Sadie just stands there looking at me with that look....

Monty is learning new skills today- ladies (well ok just me and Sadie) first through doorways and in and out of car. I am building up to this evening when Monty is going to learn another skill-not sleeping on top of my legs! I could be in for a long night.

Well that went better than expected. Yesterday there was a bit of falling out over dinner time but not sure which dog snapped first (Sadie was eating out of Monty's bowl but Monty often eats of Sadie's) Anyway yesterday Monty followed me up to bed as usual and I said off just once and he settled on the landing for five minutes and then rather reluctantly accepted his dog bed in my room. Sadie needed garden in middle of night and came up to bed afterwards drifting into the spare room so I fetched her and then she plopped herself down smack bang in the middle of the 2 dog beds leaving no room on either so I had to tug her up (no mean feat when she says no) and plonk her on the one Monty hadn't been using. Monty stayed back on the landing, an hour or so later he had come back in and was on his orginal dog bed, Sadie had repositioned as far away from him as possible curled up in a tight ball with her head under her tail (normally sprawled out unless very cold) so I think the air is still a little frosty but my feet are feeling less squashed

Went out for lunch and left the door open of the small bedroom. Came back and found one of my makeup bags half way down the stairs and all the contents leading a trail back to the bedroom. I'd forgotten about that but just found one of my teddies from the back of the small bedroom sitting on the settee downstairs watching me LOL. Wonder how he got there.

Monty has been playing a lot this evening, he's spent a good hour throwing a stuffed pheasant all round the room, it still squeaks, he drops it, picks it up and throws it then prods it a few times , drops it off the chair, picks it up again and so on. I've tried throwing it for him but it doesn't come back yet. I've also noticed that Monty almost ate in front of me today, he came intot he room when I put his food down, I walked away from it and he came up behind me and started eating. Usually dinner has been a secretive sort of event!

He’s making good progress. Glad he had fun with the stuffed pheasant. 😂

Monty only seems to like small furries, I tried him with a ball again today and ignored it until it bounced off the wall in his direction at which point he looked most startled and ran away from it! I'm not sure he has seen a ball before.
Ro, I wish I could transfer the relaxed mode to oudoors, he is always looking out for small furries.
