Jordi - 3 months cavalier

[noa_mills]

Hello all,

We got our first puppy about 3 weeks ago, he is about 3 months now and his name is Jordi. He is also a blenheim cavalier.
He's a lovely, little boy but so full of energy :D We had always had cats before and we are certainly noticing the difference! We love him very much and although he is a handful we miss him so much when we are away from him.

Here are a few pics:

Anyway, since this is our first puppy, we need lots of advice. I was recommended this website by a doggy trainer (he is starting doggy school next month) & look forward to reading all your posts :dogwlk:

icon_welcome from Australia You will enjoy puppy school. It is such fun!

Today I'm going to take him for his first walk. He hates the leash but maybe when he starts associating it with walks and being out he'll start tolerating it (I hope!) Any tips?

[Caraline]

Yeah, take some treats... something totally irresistible. Start as you hope to continue, so place him on your left side & give you start walking command eg "heel". Take a step with your left foot & hold the treat about a foot in front of his nose. When he moves forward to get the treat give it to him. Repeat, increasing the distance. Keep sessions very sort to start with... maybe only a few minutes. Even just walking 3' is a good start. Patience... patience... patience.... and most of all make it fun and end on a high note. Good luck.:dogwlk:

icon_welcome I joined this site when I was first blessed with my Chelsea Cheesecake 5 weeks ago. It is a fabulous resource with so many helpful friends!
I think that Cav owners are the same sort of people (friendly and lovable just like their cavs) - so everyone gets along really well.

I love the photo's of your baby - keep em coming!
