| My question is why do you need to keep him tied down in the house??? Does he destroy stuff? How long have you had this dog? and how old is he/she? A crate will work fine if you need to keep the dog confined to one place..but, i wouldn't use a leash to keep the dog tied in one place...i would section of an area like the kitchen with a baby gate. with a leash the dog could choke and of course he/she will bark since they feel bound up by being tied up and seeing you go elsewhere, specially if you say the dog is used to following you around. My 3 rotties do the same thing..they follow me every where i go even if it's to the bathroom. I would really use a crate, or section of an area and then you won't need to tie him/her up. At first she/he won't like the crate but they do get used to it. it happened with my pups at first, they will bark and cry. but, they will adjust to it. the best is just to section an area. |
