To each their own opinion Debra, I am working with Oakley on other issues right now and at twenty nine months he is still maturing. I don't live my life by the "what ifs", as of right now I'm able to be with him all the time when I'm not working so yes, I cater to his wanting to be around me, it's not rewarding for me to have a dog that's not independent of me, but it's the reality..and until I'm ready to address it 100% I haven't…he has made significant progress in crating and barrier frustrations...so I'm happy with the progress, and frankly..these other issues needs to be dealt with before addressing this...in order to make me leaving him with others successful. He's a happy, healthy young boy with a complex and stubborn mind, I'm going to work with him and not fight him on evolving and adapting his behaviors. However, your concern is noted and appreciated.

I feel we have a pretty Unique Vet. We live in the Champaign Illinois area which is home to the Vet School at the University of Illinois.
Our Vet was a physical therapist for people first, and then decided to go to Vet School, so he brings an interesting mix to his practice.
His practices is called SportsVet Animal Medical Center and he is located in Savoy IL. Here is a link describes his unique practice.
