That makes total sense, hence why he totally respects and listens to my husband. My husband so much as gives Oscar a "hey!" and the dogs at attention. I have to figure out what I need to do to get the same respect with him. So this is totally about
me learning for sure. I worked on some of your suggestions with him this morning for our morning walk and backyard play session and I could see a bit of a difference. It's just getting ahold of the bugger! lol It's like wrestling a pig...he's so unbelievably stubborn and CHEEKY. I'll correct him, tell him no and he'll lay there and yap, moan and totally verbalize back. I've got my work cut out! haha But on the other end I woudn't have it any other way because I do love his spunkiness and he has a great personality. Just need to teach him that I'm the boss!
