I have read about the sound interruption technique where you use a loud noise to distract their bad behavior.

Apparently I am not doing it right! Pita has been attacking my sons feet and pants legs lately (mostly when he plays wii). I tried using a loud noise and then rewarding her when she stopped. Which seemed fine but then she went right back and did it again. So I used the noise again and gave her a reward when she stopped. But it seems like now she thinks it is a game and will go back and do it to him and then expect a treat?!

What am I doing wrong??
