[troubletb]

When Bell was small she didn't run away, she just ran around.. She sarted to run away when she was about 9 months old (maybe a little older) I don't think she running away as much as shes just running!! Because when she gets tired she listens and lays down.. I have tried to do the thing with her on a long leash and she listens to me, comes right over. But off the leash she is very stubborn I could be watching TV while laying in bed and call her (she could be no more than a foot away) and she doesn't listen. Unless I have food! AS far as my mother, she is in great shape for 72, but gosh I don't want her running after Bell and have a heart attach or anything Thanks for the ideas, Keep them coming, and I'll keep trying them
