Im going to come out and admit that I did a terrible job raising my two male chihuahua children. Ive given them endless love, beds, toys, time, socialising etc... But I was terrible at disciplining them (I still apologise when I tell them off because I cant stand the guilty looks they give me). They are now 8 and 9 years old and always bark at people that come over, they dont listen to a thing I say etc... I know I did this to them, and I know that even though I thought I was a good mum, not training them properly hindered them in the end (Im a push over with my dogs and they know it and take advantage of it). I fully accept responsibility for the situation were in, but Ive just been employed in a really lucky position where they are allowed to come to my work with me, and I really want them to be able to (who wouldnt want their dogs at work with them?!). But they cant come the way they are as we are a retail shop and I cant have them barking at customers, or deciding to run out the door when Im not looking etc... Ive looked at having them trained by Mark Vette (who is amazing) but its going to cost me $3000, and I have to let them stay with him for a week which Im not sure I would cope with (I get seperation anxiety from being away from my babies). Sorry for the essay length post, but can anyone recommend someone who can work with us to get my old boys trained? Preferably not in the $3000 price range, and definitley not where they will have to stay away from me overnight. WE NEED HELP! Thanks Dog Lovers
