The goal is to have Fido in a sit, stay while you go about your business at he door. If he is allowed out, then he'll wait for your command or to be led out.
It will be a tedious and long training process, but I'm sure he'll learn. You can even put a sign at the door for visitors to let them know why it's taking so long to come to the door. |
I'm always in favor of training but I have to say, I thought my boys were trained until the day Teddy bolted out the door to chase the UPS truck. I decided to put up the gate.
