At last!
Charlie has finally given me his paw! I've been trying with him for ages and he's done it consistently for the last couple of days. He wont for hubby though.
Charlie has had several homes before coming to us and we were told a few exaggerations with him. Like he will come back when called. Yeh when he feels like it lol. He is so pig headed he fits in in this house really well.
At home his recall is good, he'll sit when asked, stand well when being bathed, wait for his food and was house trained.
We're slowing working on other basic commands but when out has a bad case of selective hearing. The main one is recall. Thanks to this forum I have picked up some tips and will be putting them in to practice. He's proved that he will learn, I just need to be more stubborn than him.
Wish I had found this forum sooner!

Great that he's making progress as you say, you just have to make sure that you're more stubborn.

Thanks all, its like he's been on best behaviour since I've brought Star home.
Great boost for me. He isn't quite as daft as he looks.
