Kimbo barks when he gets really excited while chasing my kids, and also when he hops up in a laundry basket and is scared to jump down. He has just started to bark when he wants me to pick him up, but I don't like it. If I know he wants me to pick him up, I make him sit and stay for a while. Then I silently put my hands out to pick him up. He's doing better, and has even tried changing his bark to sound more muffled and quiet. Mama still doesnt like demands, so we'll keep working at it. I like the NO BARK command and haven't ever used it. I'll try it this week. |
