Good Morning Patti & Jack,
My little Brady also has a mind of his own and loves to show his impish side now and again. I have taught him that he must behave like a gentleman before he receives any attention or a treat from me and that means that he must sit quietly and then I will pick him up and love him and only then will he receive his treat. If he does not listen ... he does not get attention, nor any treats. If he acts up I will walk away and he then quickly remembers the rules.
It has worked for us and I hope it can help you....
Hugs to you, Janie |
