I have a 5 month old mini schnauzer. She is my first dog and I have found having a puppy pretty overwhelming at times. She is doing really well though & is too smart for her own good.
What should a puppy be able to do at 5 months? I think our training has got a bit repetitive & I am worried that I am not giving her enough mental stimulation.
She can do sit, down, middle, spin & recall without distractions. We are working on place & leave it (doing well with a pile of kibble on the floor). Drop it has been difficult and I don’t feel we are making much progress.
Loose lead walking is a bit of disaster. She is not keen on walks so I am just happy to get her out & let her sniff about at the moment but again as concerned that I am setting us up for future problems.
