    PSYCHOLOGY
    - she is not allowed on the couch
    - she loses her privileges if she jumps on us or guests (mini time outs)
    - She gets 1 lap in the AM to pee if she doesn't she must hold it till her afternoon walk (a lap is about 10 min).
    - toys are put away late at night and she can lay on her bed out of the crate till we put her to sleep.

    BODY LANGUAGE
    - The girlfriend does the cuddling most
    - But like i said, no couch, she sleeps in her own space
    - If she barks on the way out, so be it, she will relax (takes a minute tops)
    - She does have the upper hand on the street though, because of the way she acts we are on high alert, and i'm sure she senses that.

    Exercise
    - We both work 9 to 5, but her schedule is...
    7:30AM - 10min walk
    1PM - 30min
    6PM - 10min
    8:30 - 10 min
    10PM - 30 min
    She also gets play time in the house - we let he be fully active from 6PM till about 10:30PM.

    DISCIPLINE
    - she understands no, sit, that's it!
    - we don't raise a hand to her, but will escort her into the other room and fence her off for 5 minutes or so, to learn when bad is bad.

    I feel we're doing the best we can - and this training camp is for her to be the best she can be for us.
