Humphrey The Blue Shar Pei - Dog Training Bronze

Hi, i have some exciting news, i have just passed my "The Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Scheme Bronze Award" my mum and dad said they are very proud of me. My dad helped as well because he answerd some questions about how to look after me.

My dad has a message for you........ Hi im Humphreys dad, when me and Humphreys mum first started training Humphrey was a nightmare very stubborn, yes a typical Shar Pei. He had a fight within 5 minutes of starting his first class ! but we stuck at it and over the past few weeks he has been great and so different from when we first went to training. So if you have a Shar pei i highly recommend you take your dog to some form of dog training. Our first intentions where just to socialise him with other dogs and didnt think he could get an award but he has and hes a pleasure to take to training now.

Hi, ive been to my nanna and grandads alot just lately, they look after me when my mum and dad are at work. I like it there because lots of cats come into the garden and i get to chase them !! i didnt have a problem with cats until i see one outside my house, i went over to play with it but it hit me acrooss the face with its paw so i chased it down the street and now i chase them all the time !

Humphrey The Blue Shar Pei - training

Hi, i went to dog training with my dad on thursday, it had been raining and the grass was wet and i dont like to sit or lay on wet grass !! my dad wasnt very happy with me because i wouldnt do anything, all i wanted to do was play with the dog next to me. But something happend that scared me, i had to walk next to my dad when he shouted at me to lay down hes never shouted at me before ! so i layed down and stayed there for a long time. I thought he was very angry with me but he said what a good boy i had been and gave me a treat !

message from my dad.... i learnt at training this week that i had to show Humphrey whos the boss and had to be a bit more strict with him at training, and it made such a difference. I must admit me and his mum have been a bit soft with him and never really rased our voices or been strict with him so we have been struggling at dog training but now i have shown him whos boss at trianing hes learning alot faster !!

Humphrey The Blue Shar Pei - Another Shar Pei

Hi, i met another Shar Pei on the beach on saturday he was called Romeo. He was 2 years old and alot bigger than me...looks like ive still got alot of growing to do. I first see Romeo in the car park, we looked at each other, he growled at me so i growled at him. We then jumped up at each other thats when dad told me to calm down. Later on the beach we met again and dad let me of my lead. Me and Romeo did some more growling but then went for a paddle. Mum and dad said they were proud of me and that i was a good boy !!
