Okay I'm going to try my hardest and teach her "Quiet" because she knows "Speak" and we can get her to bark on command. That's where I thought that we went wrong. So now I am taking a few treats on my walk and telling her "Quiet" when I can tell that she is going to bark and i stop and give her a treat when she listens. Although this morning I tried to stop and let Pyper meet the other dog, however it was only after a few minutes that she started to bark so I said "Quiet!" and we started walking the other way and I gently held her mouth for a couple seconds. This time she did not go crazy and continue barking. It wasn't good, but definetly wasn't as bad as last time. I am going to try to walk her tonight with a little Chihuahua that she has gone on walks with before. Will give updates on how it goes. |
