HAHAHAH yes they has about a million toys my girlfriend spoiles them:) they even have there on toybox:) I guess i was just brought up with dogs outside, i'm atching the footy now. i might bring them inside tonight

they just wont come near me ill call them over for treats and walk over slowly with there heads down and kinda sit a little bit away from me they wont get to close . i can go to them, pick them up give them hugs,ect. but they still wont come to me when i call them. ohh, and i guess i should mention that when its me and my girlfriend or me and anyone else including strangers they come to me, lick me, all the normal kinda stuff its funny really there only scared of me when its just me noone else there And a little smack (i tried spraying them with water they licked it:) so i added vineger(a tip from the vet) ad they developed a taste for it ,licking the spray bottle) has stopped them both from digging holes/eating my roses /comming inside/barking/fighting(playing) with each other, well i guess you get the picture like i said there good dogs with no problems apart from them being scared of me thankyou everyone for your help !!

No i don't let them come inside they know not to, it's funny when we feed them theyll sit at the open door and cry put a paw in the door and NO! and they put there heads down and slowly back up its funny how the new cattle dog kinda learns from the maltese they have very similer personalities

i walk them every day when did i say i constently smack them? ohh and I also feed them most of the time to

Thankyou for your help, beautiful dogs by the way I used to have a Rotti named tyson

its not like i hurt them its just a tap on the backside so they know not do it again

I dont talk harshly to them only when there naughty and that isnt that much really my girlfriend is a very small little thing and im over 6 ft with a natuarally deep voice do you think that could be the problem? i've never been around dogs much , love them both like kids but:)

Hi, We have two puppies a maltese cross(1yr old but still a puppy) and a 3 month old cattle dog cross both are well behaved and fairly obedient dogs, but are both scared of me and i have no idea why, my girlfriend spoils them and im the one who usually tells them no and gives them a smack, I've tried everything i can think of , anybody got any idea's?
