It will take more time and be less fun because you can't let Blarney off lead, but he will come around.

I know I get stiff and nervous around other dogs. Now that Copper is an old guy, we don't have many problems thank goodness. Rescue guys do generally have special problems since they generally weren't raised well, but mine have all been worth the extra time and worry.

I'm glad to hear Charlie is making sure she stays in the limelight.

Thank god for Charlie to make me laugh

We are going to take him up to the tennis court this weekend where its safe and we are going to let him off the lead.
And 2 things he will come back for are food and his fluffy Duck so

But i think its a dog thing he seems ok with bitches.
But because he was picked up off the street has he had to defend himself and tries to get in first ! i just don't no but this morning i met the stables dog she is a bitch and came running out barking within 3 attemps i had him under control but i still think he will be better when i can let him off the lead

.
He sure makes my Charlie look good

even though Charlie did empty someone's trash can yesterday when i turned my back

.

Charlie wouldn't do that, would she..LOL, hoping you can get this little guy under control.

He sounds like a handful and I'm sure he will come around, he is loved and cared for at you're house.

Hopefully you can drop the lead soon, I found that's a lot of the problems with my dogs, others want to attack them when on a lead but play very nice off lead.

I thought so! Actually, it was for Charlie as I associate her with ducks (swimming) and Daisy with pheasants (hunting)!

Uh-oh. The little booger stole Charlie's duck? He'd better watch his back then.

I hope things are settling down and the most you have to worry about is "What will Charlie do next to shake things up"?

She legged it down a field today covered in snow with me and Ray and Daisy and Blarney running after her we could not see her because of the snow lucky she came back

And Blarney was quite good today
