We have a 10 month unspayed bitch. When she is good, she is really really good, however when she is bad she is really really bad.
We have taken her to obedience class, and on the leash she is so sweet,docile, well behaved, and knows everything she needs to know. However at home she is a terror. So we have started keeping the prong collar on her so that we can pull and yell "no" when she behaves badly. She has someone at home all day with her, is loved, stays in the house, has three acres to play in, goes for a walk twice. She loves people , is super friendly and has been socialized as much as possible,. All in all she is amazing..
Now the issue we can't seem to 'control. She will pick something up, or be somewhere in the house she is not allowed. When we approach her, she thinks its a game and runs away as fast as she can. The "come" command she knows so well on leash is but a distant memory at this point. Today, when we finally caught her , after 20 minutes, we tried yelling "no" pulling on her collar. She went crazy, started barking and really lashed out with her teeth ready to bite us... it was really alarming.
Advice please, she really was frightening.  |
