Snack Well, I just made Berkley some oatmeal peanutbutter biscuits for a bedtime snack tonight. That should do the trick! :yes:

Thanks Thanks guys I will try this tonight!!!!

Me too My Berkley chews on my boyfriends arm and leg hair, too! He uses his front teeth and pulls on blankets if we are under them on a daily basis as well. My last Sheltie was the same way so I figure it's a Sheltie trait. Berkley also follows and sometimes growls when I leave the room. I have...

Yup Berkley, who is one, has done this forever. He runs, jumps on one couch, flies to the other, runs in circles around anyone sitting there (or just lunges onto us) then repete, repete, repete. He goes so fast it's unbelievable. We do not attempt to change this behavior since it just seems to...

Wow After all the threads on the CC products I bought my own from Amazon. Wow! I got the white on white starter kit which included the foam and ice on ice. Berkley is so soft I cannot quit touching him. Furthermore his coat is fluffy and full which he has not had since he is only 1 he still has...

Hi all! My 1 year old, Berkley, has been vomiting in the early morning. He does this about 3-4 times a week and has for about 2 weeks. The vomit is liquid in nature, bile and gooey, but no solids/chunks. He wakes up early in the morning and goes into his kennel to do this then hops back into...

Thanks again for all the advice. I will be putting it all to use, including calling the sheltie rescue for guidance. I will also be asking her for a good behavioral trainer. I appreciate all the positive training techniques. I know some level of anxiety is expected with a sheltie I just feel so...

Wow, thanks guys! I am going to try the leash and have talked with my boyfriend, we will not be getting another puppy yet.

Thanks! I feel better just knowing I am not the only one! I am still on the fence about another puppy... I, too, hope time corrects this. We also tried meds but I didn't see an improvement and felt I was giving up since he is still so young. I know there has to be something I can do! Thanks again

My 18 month old, Berkley, has been developing new anxiety issues on what seems to be a daily basis. He throws these tantrums where he spins, paces, barks, cries, etc if we use the microwave, toaster, phone, open windows, or open the shades. These behaviors have been getting more and more...

Thanks, good points. I am not looking to correct Berkleys issues with a new dog, but I do hope that some of his energy will be better spent with a new friend. I see your point about behaviors being introduced and transferred onto the new puppy. I suppose I do need to think about that a bit. I...

Hello! I am new to the forum. I have a 18 month old sheltie, Berkley. He is my second sheltie. Huckelberry, my first sheltie passed away 2 years ago at the age of 13 and was so loved. I am going to look at new puppies at the same breeder that we got Berkley at on Saturday. I have never had 2...
