Oh Donna I am so sorry too but this really made me laugh though not funny when you are trying to deal with a teenager lol! Beau had started to become a very naughty teenager and my friends all said it was Karma as have had a dream of a teenager with Madeleine 
but Beau had started to calm down a bit before she got ill. Hopefully it wont last long though I shall enjoy reading about his antics x

What a cheeky boy! Daisy is a monkey when it comes to food and I am trying to train her to go into her crate during mealtimes. I took her for a walk this morning and she just vanished after chasing a bird! I just kept walking and calling her and eventually she came back but I put her straight back on the lead after that! Just keep telling yourself it is just a phase and that a long line will get us through it! xx

Yep, I got the longline out today too! After Obi scarpered twice on me yesterday I decided that was it . We went on our usual walk with it today where we often meet the same people and they were all most surprised to see Obi's longline dragging behind him. Made me feel guiltily for putting it on him until he saw a dog on the other side of the park.....zoom..off he went....then I stood on the end of the line and he had to stop I used lots of the "Leave it" command and asked him to ignore several dogs that approached. He did...reluctantly - Good Boy! . I had some yummy roast beef left over from Sunday lunch (sorry just realised that is a sore subject :roll eyes: ) which definitely helped too. I do feel a bit sorry for him though as he so full of life and just a bit over zealous at the moment. Back to basics Donna and Buddy will be fine. Hope he enjoyed the beef

Hope he enjoyed the beef Donna I am sorry but you always make Buddy sound such a character and even with his adolescent behaviour .. I just have to smile. He will grow out of it .. I wouldn’t be happy about the beef either ...
Picnic is just over 7 months and I see a difference in her behaviour, minimal I may add, but she does push the boundaries at times ... you will work through this, promise.
Honey went through this time and so did Oakley and they are both wonderful dogs who are a pleasure to know, train and love. Also they had Honey’s prolonged first season to deal with, which was my fault not theirs (naive about the desire to mate) and they have come out the other side of their adolescence an wonderfully mature pets ... hey but still lively and great fun, not too sensible or well behaviour lol .. thats wouldn't be much cockapoo fun would it ...
Buddy step away from the beef ....

I love hearing of Buddy's escapades! Adds a chuckle to my day
Sounds like hard work .. he he he .. but well worth it Donna ...
Good boy Buddy .. bet he is snoozing now ...
Just finished lunch so going to do some sit, stay training with the girls together .. double the trouble but I love it ... I also train them separately but double the trouble is so lovely to watch ... Honey will try to sneak forward on the stay and Picnic will bounce when I release them with a COME command .. aren’t are dogs wonderful and aren’t we so lucky to have them yes yes is the answer by the way ha ha ha

Like the others, don't mean to laugh, but the picture of cockerpoo running with their "booty' (your meal!!) did make me chuckle..........I obviously have the 'joy' of adolescence all to come?! they are characters arent they. I can't believe how high smudge can stretch, when she smells something on the work top! And she is still a puppy! Back to more training In preparation for when smudge hits teenage time.........I think!:icon_arrow:
