Ok so haven is four months old. She is such a great puppy but has not started her training class yet. The next class is not until the 28th so I have to wait. Ok get to my point I am so upset today because I have been taking haven out to play and she is starting to run away from me. She learned to jump the fence also so I have to go out and get her when she does. I open the window to try to keep an eye on her and keep her from going over the fence but sometimes does not happen. Ok anyway's she is running and so I get the treat box and shake it (its the only way she will come back to me) I try not to run after her cause I don't want her to think its ok to run from me. I just don't know what to do. I am really starting to get upset with her over it. I love her so much and just don't want her to get stolen or hurt.
NEXT: I take haven with me everywhere but to get her ready for shows I am trying to get her to use her crate more. So I started making her go to it for a while a day. I need to start making her sleep in it to but right now I am just trying to make her like the crate lol. Anyway's she is very much so potty trained but here this week anytime I leave the house she poops and sometimes will be covered in it. I have been patient with this but today I left for thirty min and came home and there is pooped covered haven. I don't understand why I know she knows to go outside. It seems to be only when I leave. She is just overall getting really snobby is the best way to put it. She has not been listening to me at all.
Ok I am done rambling I just am so fed up with it this week. I think I have been really tolerant but today was just a bad day and add the week to it and I am frustrated.
I guess what I am asking is how do I teach her to not do these things but still give her positive reinforcement. When she runs I get the cookie box shake it and when she gets to me I give her the cookie and tell her good girl but ITS NOT WORKING SHE STILL RUNS AND ONLY COMES IF I HAVE COOKIES. AND NOW SHE IS TAKING THE COOKIE AND TRYING TO RUN AGAIN. ERRRRRRRRRR PLEASE HELP. I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO UNTIL HER TRAINING CLASS STARTS.
