Thanks Tracey, yea we had a lovely time, Tonights walk was not so good, not as bad as she has been, so things are moving in the right direction.

Update.....



Phoned Wiccaweys (sp) tonight and spoke to a lovely guy. The first thing he asked was what food she was on. I told him Life Stage Puppy, he said to take her off that because it is too high protein. Thinking about it and discussing it with Chris, she has become more manic since being on this food. It has a protein of 40%, but I was told (not on here) that she still needed the puppy food.
the guy at Wiccaweys said that her little brain is working in overdrive, she has too much energy and need to expell it, and this is part of the problem.
He also advised me to (as a lot of you have said on here
to give her something to do while on a walk. ie, ball toy etc. I did this today anyway, because of Dogsey I must say it seems to be making a difference, she had to focus of the ball instead of herding everything in sight.
He said I could ring him anytime!!

Hi

So pleased you telephoned Wicc and spoke to Paul, they really do know their dogs.

Sounds like things are settling already. Great news.

Incidentally if my bcs were on 40% protein they would be hyper too!! I know I've been there when I put them on a different food without realising the protein content.
