Default Appreciate you

Thank you so much for this advice! I'll share it with my husband, too.

You can also use a water pistol if all else fails
Then distract them as you make a correction
If you feel up to it ...
If you are at arms length
when this happens you can grab each by the scruff of the neck
This is what the alpha dog will do to stop disputes
and you pin each to the floor
you don't hurt them in any way just enough force so they cannot move
Hold them there for a minute as you make your correction
and then distract them with a toy or an activity
