I remember Leah nipping a rather overenthusiastic spaniel and the owner thanking me! Her dog was over lively around dogs and she wanted it to learn its place.

We have now graduated from the Vet Puppy Parties. No more Wednesday night wrigglefests for our Charlie.
There were only 4 puppies there tonight - Charlie, Daphne the snappy, grumpy black Scottie, Lottie the black springer spaniel and an adorable fox red labrador called Poppy who I got lots of cuddles with! A really unusual colour, she's going to be a beauty.
They kindly remarked how intelligent Charlie seems to be, that he picks things up quickly. He does, it's true! I wondered if anyone has bought intelligence games for their dogs that they could recommend? I know Raffo made Jess some lovely games when she was a young 'un but I'm not up to that - it would need to be something I could buy off the internet...

We are playing hiding things games, both indoors and out, this is something we have always done with all our dogs, initially find the children which I thought was a really useful when they were little round the farm!! Worked like a dream and of course progressed on to finding toys etc

Our previous training class made an end of term game which was using a bun baking tray (not the deep muffin ones but the shallow ones) and putting a treat in some of the holes then a tennis ball on top of every hole. The dog has to take off the tennis balls to find the treats. Or in Wanda's case, shove her nose under it to tip it up so all the tennis balls roll away and she can eat the treats swiftly before starting to destroy the tennis balls

Turning a buff into a mortar board sounds like an intelligence game for me! I like the bun tin idea, thank you.

I rang... apparently she is 'sitting up' ... pictures her in a granny style bed jacket... I wonder how long it will be before she chews her way to freedom?
