Well, to take the focus off of all the "walker drama" --- I have begun training Sunny. He was not obedience trained since she showed him in conformation --- so I have started. I had a clicker and decided to give it a try. He loved it! Now, he is 3 1/2 years old, so not a pup -- but in 2 sessions we have "sit", "down" and working on down stay. He now gladly will follow me into the kitchen if he sees me near the treats and offers up the Sit, and the Down is a little slower --- but wow, not only is he fast, he wants to do right! I am also signing us up for Beginning Agility starting in March.

I think clicker training and Agility work can be excellent confidence builders, so not only are you both having fun, but it may help with his problems too.
