is anyone a control freak about their dog and training him/her...
i have a boyfriend and we are not on the same page as far as training her. he lets things slide with her like jumping and pulling the lead that i just nag and nag him about. so i guess what im asking is if you leave your dog with someone and they don't do the same training with her will she be confused and will it basically ruin all that i have been trying to do with her?

Confused, sure. Ruined, no.

I agree with Brad-the thing is are you with the dog more? then you will probably get the dog to listen-just may be a bt slower because of the inconsistency. hey think of toddlers-they know when mom and dad are serios about the rules and listen-on the other hand they go to grandmas and they know there they can get away with it- Id say theres a similarity there.
