Hi all sorry i havnt been around much since moving - we dont have an internet connection yet grr!
Anyway - quick question - is it safe to leave a harness on all day?
Reason being - when we moved house we now have a big back garden with grass and yard. Before we moved we just had a small bit of yard at the back of the house.
Meeko refuses to come in from the garden and will bark and run off round and round the garden (i dont chase him so he doesnt thonk its a game from me - he made this game up all by himself!!) iv tried rattlin treats to encourage him to come in shake his lead everything but he wont listen! Hes even started barking at the patio doors for us to let him in then he will run off and bark as soon as u open the door!!
My thoughts on what to do now is stop him running riots by taking him out to toilet on his leash but when he has his harness put on he gets over excited as he thinks its time for his walk. Can i put it on in the morning take him for a walk then keep it on all day to take him out the garden on it when he wants to go out? ... Or do you have any better suggestions/training techniques? Xx
