Look forward to hearing how well it is all going in a few months.

You are obviously not a crap owner because you are on here seeking advice and trying to do the best you can for you puppy. Good for you!!! But all puppies go through a "Kevin" phase where it looks like everything you have taught them has gone out of the window overnight. We are just trying to help you avoid the frustration that goes with that.

i think your pup is so tired because you are over exercising it so much!!

generally follow the 5 minute rule... so say 3 month old pup.. 15 minute walk.

im sorry but its the way a couple of you put accross your answers...yeh the answers are great help...most of it...but when someone says "please do not throw sticks for your dog" really upsets me because for one...it sounds like they are telling me i am doing it when i never have...i know the risks when it comes to sticks, i had a previous dog die from it so i have first hand experience...
i said she prefers sticks to balls...doesnt mean i like it. and at 13 weeks i cannot train every aspect into her head as its too much for her.
as for recall well my original post had nothing to do with recall. yeh she might become unruley and im prepared for that but i think if i persevere now and dont stop the training just because i think i got it sussed (cos i dont)
i thank you all for the advice on walking her too much..you learn something new every day and i never knew the 5min per month of age thing before...but again the way in which it was said upset me again..."omg stop walking your dog that long" or something along those lines,
all im saying is i do appreciate the advice but its not hard to write it in a more respectable way. i hope you understand this.
thank you all for your time.
