My little 3 pound poodle (Luna) has been a real doll, she is so tine and cute. We have been able to easily manager her, because we just pick her up and move her whenever needed. The baby bladder has been a little struggle, but she is getting better.
We have another poodle mix, 5 years old (Bella) that when I come home for lunch, we play ball in the back yard, and the little one has become her little shadow. She keeps up run for run with the older dog and is soooo fast. But now that she has discovered full on speed running, I can't get her back in the home. When I say time to go in, the older comes inside, baby is out chasing dandelions. As I approach her to pick her up and bring her in…boom she is off like lightening, zigging and zagging. I ended up taking 15 minutes of my lunch hour trying to wrangle her back into the house.
She is too young for formal train (not fully vaccinated) -< she is not ones for treats yet either. How can I encourage her to stay in place so I can scoop her up when it's time to come inside. I don't feel it is safe to leave in the backyard unsupervised. How do we encourage, train her to stay in place or come and that it is not a game?
