[nagdu] Dogs and instructors

[Sarah]

I leave toys on the ground but he thinks socks and shoes are more 
intedesting.  I always give him a firm verbal correction if that 
don't work he gets put on leash.

I have to be very careful about what I leave on the floor as 
well.
You could try leaving toys down for your dog to see if that will
distract him from picking up your socks.

 Cool! That's awesome I'll try that with my dog if he stops
 putting socks in his mouth and stuff.

 Cindy, that's what I've been told as well; keep the dog on
 leash/tie
 down for about two weeks and slowly introduce the dog to
 supervised
 time off leash.  My dog was completely off leash by the fourth
 week
 home, and I tie him during the night.

  Well, maybe I am misunderstanding something here, but when I
 have received
  my dogs, I was told to keep them on leash full time for two
 weks; then I can
  begin letting them off.  I usually have them pretty much off in
 the house by
  three weeks to a month depending on their reaction.  I always
 tie them at
  night.  So this is the first time I have heard of students at
 the schools
  being told to keep dogs on leash or tie down six months to a
 year.  I was
  never told that.
