Hi
I know it sounds SOOO mad that I have five dogs, but the thing is, it is. Out of the 5 dogs only 1 is completely trained, but even he still barks. The reason we have 5 dogs isn't because we have lots of money or felt a little greedy! Firstly, I got my dog for my birthday and I love him to bits (He's the completely trained one) and then my mum saw an advertisement on epupz for another sheltie like mine and how she needs a home because she was getting scared by a big lab they own. So we bought her home and she was very quiet and timid and didn't no how to play with toys. One day we saw that both the dogs had tied and thats how we basically got a batch of puppies because we didn't want to abort them. She had 4 puppies and they were gorgeous. I begged mum to keep one and she said thats fine. We had sold 1 of the puppies but unfortunately, we couldn't sell the other 2 to anyone else. As time went on, we grew attached to them and they grow attached to us, we still couldn't find an eligible buyer for the other 2 pups so we had to keep them. The problem we have now though is that 2 years later they are still untrained and now the mother (of the pups I mean!) have grown into herself and started barking. A LOT!
These are the things I need help with:
=They are partly toilet trained and every now and then wee on the floor. How do I stop it? The carpet is getting ruined and it really smells now
=They bark all the time at anything happening outside, when anyone comes to the house and when I throw a toy for one of them they all bark and get excited, so I avoid playing with them to stop disturbing the neighbors
=2 of the dogs still chew things like scarfs, chairs and shoes
=When my friends come round they get scratched to pieces from jumping up at them and even though I know its mine and my mums fault for not training them properly, I get pretty embarrassed so I don't invite my friends over
=How can we walk them all together?! Its so hard to walk them that we have to take two at a time and it would be great if they all walked together really well =)
=And last but not least, they dig holes in the garden and its such a pain filling them back up over and over again!!!
I know I've written LOADS but any advice would be a great help! Even if its one sentence, it would help a great deal =)
Thanks for your patience to read my ramblings =D

I thought it was clear I was asking for help? I didn't ask if I should give my dogs away or not did I? I simply asked how I could train my dogs. They have a big house and garden to run a round in, get plenty of exercise and get lots of attention. I can asure you they are very happy. And also, for your infomation "Hoolagal" they are all neutered, thanks for the huge concern.
