I share all your frustrations. I took Lucy to her first puppy party last week (for pups who haven't had all their vaccinations yet) - she was brilliant, doing sits, downs, heeling offleash, etc, despite the distractions of other pups around her. I was SOOOO proud.
However, at home she is less inclined to behave, and will run away or just ignore me - a real prima donna!
When I took her for her second shot at the vet yesterday, she immediately wanted to be down, playing with the other dogs and demonstrating her skills - she thought it was puppy party again, and was most disappointed when all she got was a shot and microchipping
