I try and use the correction methods I read about -- dog whisperer type - and the methods a trainer taught me along the same lines but he just doesn't stop.
tonight we had an episode that lasted 15 minutes!! then after a few mintues he started again. I couldn't go through it again so I just put him in his crate.
He has bitten me several times during these episodes. They had stopped for a while but the past 2 days have been awful again.
I really want to hear that this will work itself out but needless to say I am very concerned. He's not yet 4 months old and I can hold him down...
We haven't started obedience classes yet -- the first one is June 2.
Do I have a freak dog? Please tell me there's hope.... |
my 10 week old is going through the "exact" same thing right now. i just dont know what to do, he's just so mean the last couple days! really looking forward to hearing what the pros have to say.
