I tried this last night, and she followed me round like a lost sheep, which i know they do and she has done from day one tbh, but i will continue to do this method as i think the theory of it is a very good one.

Also this may have been wrong but i wanted to see what she did, when i came home i ignored her, she was still buzzing round the kitchen terrorising titon. When i went in i stroked titon who was calm and seated with my back to skye.

Now although she was still quite hyper and stood up, i stroked her stomach, she immediately lay down and rolled over and stayed calm whilst i was touching her, as soon as i removed my hand, she was up and back to her busy body-ing self. So when i touch her she stays calm but when i'm not she get's frustrated.... Any thoughts on this behaviour from her?

I have been putting the lead on and taking it off 6-8 times a day, the first one is the worst and she does seem to be settling down throughout the day when i grab the lead. The coat is the one my boy picks up on so have been doing the same with that after i'v done the lead. Titon is a smart arse and is just laying down now once i'v put the lead on them and the coat on me
