Thank you I will, it all came a bit fast so had no time to prepare. and do my homework, she is doing well though. I am not used to giving treats etc. I tried to catch her in the garden this morning, she thought it was a great game of tag, I was knackered ha ha

Thanks again
Barry.

Chasing is a wonderful game, especially when you are a dog and being chased.
Treat when she does come in and you will get her back very quickly.
If she doesn't want to come in, then put her on a very long running line. When you give the command IN pick the end up and take her in and treat. She will get the idea.

Thank you again Wendy, yes I have much to learn, I need to get a spike and line so I can take her to work with me, the older girl has been great with her very patient considering they are the nearly the same size and Molly is constantly on her to play, I don't know what I am going to do when Leah goes home as she has been keeping little one entertained lol.

Hell no {rofwl} , I was not expecting the first one, up until Saturday I was a dog sitter not a dog keeper.

A year or so on... Molly is my mate, my fishing partner, the chickens gardian and play mate ( against all advice) and the sweetest pit bull (apparently) dog you could ever meet... She is getting on for 30kg of pure little darling... is the perfect pet... is near trained lol .. sometimes she even does what she is told ! .... I am so glad I took the plunge ... An awfull lot of hard work but well worth it... so happy to have her as my friend

I am so glad she was worth the work. )t' They are great company aren't they ?
Just a little suggestion.
Don't say anything with the words pit bull in the sentence.
They are a banned breed and she could be seized. You are not allowed to buy, give or sell one. They must be muzzled, neutered, insured. Even if she isn't deemed to be a PB she could be in Police kennels some time before they let you have her.
I think she is a staffie mix {hug}

Thank you again Wendy, you were a great help to me when I first got her, the point I was making is that people call her that and some shy away but she is so friendly, well behaved and good natured.. I know you don't think that dogs should mix with chickens but she is amazing with them, has gone to them and dropped sticks for the girls to play with and knows that they are boss when they are out, quite funny when they get grumpy with her... the best thing to watch is the way she treats my mother (who is quite frail) she is so gentle with her and totally opposite with dad who can always be nudged into play....
Just my best mate, even when she digs my potatoes up !
