I'm no expert, but I probably wouldn't put him in the same room where he sleeps whenever he is in a "mood". I've read that dogs shouldn't be punished in the same room or crate where they sleep.
Does you wife feed him or take him out to potty or on walks? Generally dogs respect the ones who do these things.
I agree with getting him some formal training. I did this with my dog along with watching alot of Dog Whisperer and Its Me Or The Dog. |
