There is something about family commenting on training your dogs.
Mine do the same, i think we have done really well seeing that my oh broke his ankle a month after getting our puppies and couldnt go to training, but they always have some comment when they come around, i dont think they mean it but i just end up snapping at them and again my dad is one of the worst, they just can't say well done can they.
I have been worried about their behaviour so i got a behaviourist/trainer to come to the house before we took them to classes but he said they were really good seeing they hadnt been to classes so i was please.

Dont listen to them, it is hard though.

YOUR house, YOUR dogs, Rhubarb to visitors! If they dont like your house or your dogs, just tell them not to visit, you are not there to be insulted nor your dogs taunted, sorry if I sound harsh, but I wouldnt stand for anyone being like that to my dogs.

That's just it though Dawn...

It's my mum's house, and my mum's brother Yes, my dogs but you can only say a certain amount to family members who I 'should' have respect for.

I do agree though... and I don't know how many times I've told people 'MY dogs, MY rules - and I don't want them being fed!' when people kept feeding them...
