Sadly, I think your going to have to "suck it up" and go to the dreaded obedience classes. That's where I am......every mind numbing Saturday. But it's working. We put a 20 foot lead on the little boogers and then call them to us with a treat. They can either walk to us or ski to us but COME, they do. Kills me to admit it but it's working. I never thought my Priscilla was stupid but then again....I didn't think I was either. I was only half right. I was doing everything wrong and shhhhhhhhhhhhhh, don't tell a soul, I TEACH behavior modification (for humans). I've only been a Yorkie pushover for a couple of months but without these classes, I was ready for the Rubber Ramada. Now I have a plan. I don't envision myself laid out on the carpet with tiny paw prints all over me. I can control the way I act and not just be reactive to her adorableness. I was starting to feel like silly putty. Out of control dogs are like out of control children.....only their parents love them. |
