What’s Benny Boy doing in that pool??? hehehehe

Benny Boy has shown no interest in toys…….. yet.

But we do “piddle and poos” when he shows some restlessness when inside.

Untie his lead from the piano, and he heads straight for the door, and does his “Piddle and poos” down the paddock within a few minutes. He’s yet to piddle or poo in the house, even after being left alone all night.

I’m not claiming he’s house trained yet, but considering he doesn’t respond to ANY sort of command, (even “sit”), I think we’re doing pretty good so far with “piddle and poos”. 🐕🚽😁

Maybe if he sees you playing, he’d show more interest.

Roll up a pair of old socks, get on the floor near him, and start chucking the roll-up about and pretend it’s trying to escape and keep catching it, then letting it go again.

He’ll either soon join in, or sit there staring at you like you’re a sad case.

I’m not going to use cloth or any sort of clothing as “toys”. Coz he won’t know the difference between old cloth/clothes as toys, and clothes/undies/socks hanging on the clothes horse airer to dry. They stay there till I need them.

I got some small bite-sized dog training teats and a long line lead yesterday. We’ll be off down the paddock to do some “Benny Boy…… Come” training once I’ve finished my morning webernetting session, (and some Choobs on how to “Benny boy……Come” training) and Benny Boy has woken up from his morning snooze.

I did the rolled up socks with Daisy when she was a puppy, and she didn’t treat other clothing as toys.

Had more trouble with her chewing the furniture.
