Posted: Tue Aug 14, 2007 12:20 pm Post subject: day one of dogs off furniture |
|
|
I have never really allowed sheila on the furniture unless she has been ill, but we allowed it with Kiera from day one. Today is the day I have put my foot down with my family that we need to reclaim our home before sheila forgets the rules and before Kiera gets any older. Ohh the joys, kiera isn't having any of it the little madam. if anything it will burn up her energy and ours |

Its best to do it now when you can wear them out, rather than when she is older and a bigger madam lol |

Its my fault I listened to hubby, he is just a pada one learner as far as dogs are concerned, but he is now actually listening to me, I am not just training a pup but an adult and 2 kids at the same time. hmm wonder if you get prong collars in human form |

if it's for humans I'd go for an electronic collar instead of a prong! |

If you are clear and above all 100% consistent you will sort this quickly...if you relent 1 time in every 100..........Kiera will always wonder.....is the next time I go up going to be the one I get to stay up? And them chance it! _________________ John Thomson
