yep theres a fine line between not enough and too much when it comes to affection
x2, I like a dog that trusts me but when it is time to hunt the dog is out hunting.
I like giving just enough attention to the pups to keep them social and not shy. I never really call the dog to me unless I need him to come for a reason but it must know to come... and comes because the pup or dog trusts me.
