This comes from a Chihuahua experience I had....but I did do something to scare her and it took FOREVER to get past that....My hubby said she is "ruined"....I think he is an idiot!!!!!

I know I did some scary things while raising my daughter...she turned out ok!!!
Those are some great ideas....it's so hard to not do the baby talk but I think I'll try that with Cheri - she has a mind of her own !
