Hi everyone!
It has been long since I posted here anything and Minni has turned from a clumsy little puppy to a graceful little lady.
But now, as she was first time in heat, her behavior changed completely. She was perfectly obedient before, but now she's a horror. She doesn't want to listen to commands, when I try to make her sit or give paw or wait, she starts whining A LOT, like she doesn't like to do it at all! Plus, she became really excited and easily distracted, especially in the streets. She will never listen to me when we are in the street, when a human or a dog goes past, she is "flying" on her leash, but never listens to commands. When I try to make her sit and distract with a treat, no can do. She just whines and tries to watch at the human/dog, without really wanting even to look at me! :shifty:
Plus, she all the time tries to be Alpha! It is like I've tried everything, but she is extremely stubborn - she always tries to go first, pull on the leash, not to listen to commands etc., etc. When we are walking and I try to make her walk behind me, she first tries to sneack in forward in between my legs and if it doesn't work, then she starts to jump at me! She is obedient only more or less at home, when nothing distracts her, or when she is really tired.
I would appericate any advice on this situation.
