Pepe

I have been to see a therapist with Pepe last night, as his fear of children and noise became worse. It was an interesting experience.
Pepe is in 'nursery' every day from 8-5, and then we go for a walk around 6pm for another hour or so. This is one of the things, I have to change, as one of the root cause for his behaviour is that he is tired and less patient. So he will not go to nursery every day to allow him proper relax time. When he does go, our evening walks will be shorter.
The other 'issue' is that he cannot feel that I can resolve issues - things that issues for him - and he wants to control them. This will be a longer period to resolve, and I will need to build our relationship again. As a start, I have to make him 'work' for food. It sounds worse then it it, however it is hard work. This simply means that he will get fed during the walks and not at home. This will make him realize that I set the rules and he needs to obey. I guess this will be harder for me then for him, as it means no treats at home.
What I was also told that he is very clever and he knows this! So he is using it to manipulate both me and Bia (his 'nanny'), so another area I need to watch out for.
We go again next week, hopefully it will not be a too long of a period when life can go back to normal, however some things will need to remain - like time in nursery...

2013

A year has passed since I have lost written anything. A lot of things have happened. The most important is that now I have a dog. Adopted him last summer, so we are together for nearly a year. He is a bit more than 1 yr now, but that is still puppy time for doggies. :)
I have also started and finished a financial course, so now I can work as an accountant. It was hard work, as I am not that interested about accounting, but proved that I can still do it if I spend enough time on it.
I will try to keep this more up to date, let's see if I can do it.
