I watched the second half..........poor big Great Dane that took his elephant out for a walk because he was scared!
I like the use of the remote air collar on the Ridgeback.............and I'm glad the English Bull Terrier never came to our classes Embarassed

I love Dog Borstal. Mick trying to get that bull terrier to do anything was hilarious, as was the previous week when he was trying to get that quiet bloke to be more exciting.

It's interesting that most of the problems stem from women treating their dogs like children and not being the boss. I have to stop myself mummying my dog -very easy to do.

Benson, the Dane reminded us so much of our Basil. Basil has an Archie, a huge cuddly toy which he uses as a comfort blanket. At least he doesn't walk out with him, only in the garden.
Great Danes always want a comfort toy. Nice to see a dog who is a bigger wimp than Basil. It makes me realise how far Basil has come.
I couldn't cope with that Bull Terrier! Never seen Mick so harassed. Shame. I Really like him.

Great Danes are not substitute children. They are much more important than that!

Yeah I saw the repeat last night!

Sometimes when I watch that programme it actually makes me think mutley and mutley are well behaved!!
Keano could be doing with some of that mike!!!

If I play sweet little mummy to the boys for a few days I notice a change in their behaviour straight away!!! But its hard sometimes when your tired to be the boss and be strict all the time!!

Am with you on that one.

Otto has had a lot of attention this week as I've been on holiday and he was ill, and he's been jumping into my seat on the sofa when I left the room and chewed the table leg.

It is hard to be firm with him, but a few lax days and the change was very obvious.

It's hard not to laugh though - the look on his face was "Why can't I lie on the sofa, I'm not well and it's so comfy." Totally at it!
