The training has basically gone to hell in a hand basket since Maggie could not take the meds and she had all the BAT and thyroid testing and Buster had his issues again with his leg. I think we will be starting from square one if we go back.

Are you favoring Buster over Maggie, or does Maggie get your attention first? The reason I ask is bc Peek was attacking Tinkerbell for a while, and I started giving him less attention and was mad with him a lot. Nothing I did stopped him, in fact he got worse and his attacks increased in frequency. Then I threw my hands in the air out of desperation and did the exact opposite, started giving him more good attention, and his behavior improved dramatically.
