We have found Oscar to be a very busy little pup, always on the go and ready for anything.
He is very slick as well so we need to keep doors, drawers etc closed and our decorative items are getting higher and higher.
But he is great fun as well. He loves to go on long walks, and we have found a park where we can book a field all to himself, its very secure and he can run all his energy off. Its what he needs, but until he can come back safely and obey instructions he must stay on the lead most of the time.
We live on the coast and at least 2 dogs have fallen from the cliff top and died from their injuries.
Despite his energy and his odd moments of madness, his training is coming along quite well. He is walking very well on the lead, Although he does have times when he lunges at things, which can almost pull your arm out of the socket.
We have invested in a halti which means we have control from his chest as well as the harness round his shoulders. I am finding it very good, it seems a much softer way to get him to walk on the lead.

We chose this one, which pulls from the front.
There are a range of harnesses, we went into https://www.petsathome.com/?msclkid=b3781e16efe6159539fb4385d87181a8&gclid=COTJydn5-uQCFQmDhQodAV8E-A&gclsrc=ds
where you can take your dog in and there will be someone to help you try them.
Just chilling out at home,
