here's some pictures of the new baby Ozzy: |
Be careful you aren't "praising him" for the barking. If he barks at the kitty and then runs to you and you give him positive attention that reinforces in his mind that barking at the kitty is a good thing. You should do all that you can to show him barking at the kitty is not going to be tolerated. You can show him attention, but be careful to not reinforce his concerns about the kitty. Good Luck.
