The fostered dog has settled in really well with us (one week on). A handsome lad in honey, he is well sorted, no guarding, pacing and very little seperation anxiety. He is a cuddle monster and is at his happiest to be asleep in physical contact with me (I'm not really used to that !) His recall is fine and has been allowed to toilet and plytime off lead in the garden. The play is highly energetic (as expected) e.g. today it focused on a large flower pot, chucking it and catching on the fly and playing oit like a ball.
He's great on our walks, but not yet been off lead - lack of social contact means he avoids other dogs and one off lead Springer got a firm telling off when he came too close.
I take him every morning and late night around a block to toilet - as soon as he's done this all he wants to do is run home. I've never come across this before, any ideas on how to stop this ?
