Taylor is 5 months old. He's always VERY BUSY...but sweet and fun. He has done great with his potty training and even sits up like a prairie dog and begs for a reward after he does a "Good Boy" on his Piddle Pad. The problem that we are having with his behavior is that when he gets something like a piece of paper, underwear...anything that he shouldn't have OR when he knows we want to pick him up to put him in his carrier and room he takes off 100 mph and races around the house and we can't get him to stop. We can't catch him. He gets under different things like the dining room table...then takes off again in a FLASH! Chasing him only makes it worse and being firm and saying STOP...STAY doesn't work. This is so frustrating! I wonder what Cesar would do...

Please...any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
