This is bad, but I haven't been able to take Penny to the vet yet. My leg has been causing me so much pain and is so swollen that I had to cancel her appointments. I missed 3 days at work last week because of leg.
Right now she is acting like her normal, happy self and that is even when I am grooming her. I have been grooming her more often to see how she will react and to let her know that even though she growled and snapped, she was still low dog on the totem pole.
I have also been making her work for everything and and she is giving me no problems except for one. When I let her inside from going potty outside I make her sit and stay until I get in living room and sit down and then I release her. She is fine as long as I am facing her, but if I turn my back (even if I keep saying stay) she thinks she is released and comes bounding in.
Anyone know how to keep her staying without me having to walk backwards?
