    I got my ESP about 10 days ago, he is 27mts old & trained to the whistle, & is good dog.
    I think he has adjusted fine to me & his settings.
    He has a good kennell with a 15mm rubber base on the floor of it, eats well & is getting a good walk & work out in the morning & evenings. He has 3 or 4 bath towels in his kennell also for bedding.
    However he sometimes barks to call me or her good self outside to close his kennell door, which I normally only close at night, anyone else ever see this happen? is this normal behaviour during a cold spell?

    I have a GSP bitch, and her kennel is in a half acre garden. Every evening she is fed and after she finishes eating she heads for the kennel. As soon as she goes in she gives a few barks to let me know to come close the kennel door.
