Hello!
I was thinking about trying "bell training" for our 5 month old Yorkie. We have her 98% potty trained on the pee-pads and with the warmer weather coming we are transitioning her to go outside.
We have a 7 yr old bichon who barks at the door when she wants to go outside. We LOVE that she does this.
Does anyone have a Yorkie who does this too? Are they difficult to train to do this? They seem to be incredibley smart and our Mariah is doing really good learning "tricks" like sit, roll over, etc.
I read somewhere that training a dog to bark on command is a good thing...because you can also then train them to "NOT bark" because they understand what the word "bark" means. I think that would be helpful. At certain times I could definitely use the "NO barking" command for Mariah!
I recently read a post from someone who taught their Yorkie to "bark" and now they won't stop...lol...that would be bad. I'm scared to try this now!
