I tried holding her, she fought really hard and continued losing her mind.
Now....she is a good girl. She has learned "NO BARKING". I accomplished this by placing her on her back until she submitted to me. I would say "No Barking, Be a good girl" over and over again. No matter how long it took or how hard she fought. I would never release her until she became calm. At that point, I would loosen my hold a bit. If she began her tirade again, I would go back to the firm hold. She finally gave in. Then I praised her tremendously. I am thankful it is pretty much over. The process wore me out! |
I have to try this with Bengi, thanks! He also barks with somebody is at the door.
