I guess you have to give Rusty new chewy toy (tasty bone) once in a while, at least that will keep him occupy for couple of days. When you discipline him, have to be very firm and harsh at times. Actually I only realised that discipline cocker spaniel is so much harder compared with Beagle. Beagle is famous being naughty & playful, but they are smart, therefore a fast learner. Whereas cocker is not that smart, at times find my Tasha is quite stupid & stubborn...didn't get the message fast enough, so learning through the hard way...sometimes get canning from me...actually not that hard because she has quite a thick fur. Initially when she first came into our family, she was really "kurang ajar". Snatched food from your hand, she would try all methods to reach for the food like crazy. Jumped on me when I reach home etc. Quite a slow learner....but now she knows the rules. But sometime she would still try to test me, I just need to show her the cane, she would quickly well behaved. Hope the above tips help.
