Thanks so much for all of the replies! This week, Ollie has done great. He has not bit at me, and when he has I think it was because he was confused because my hand was on his toy. We have a ton of toys around for him to play with, and we try to rotate them out. Walks have gotten longer now that he has gotten used to the leash and stopped trying to eat everything in site. We have taught him to come and sit and turn with good success. We tried using the treats and the clicker for reinforcement. He learned so quickly! The dog walker says he has been much better with other dogs on walks. He has made a few friends in the neighborhood (the Shizu down the street,ect) I have high hopes for him, and I really appreciate all the advice I ave had on the forums. Keep all the good info coming! Next battle: barking, yikes... |
