I appreciate the suggestions re: spraying water (I know, I know - without lemon), and the coins in a jar. These don't work for Rocco. My next step is to remove him and isolate him in the bathroom, as a trainer suggested. She said to use the "quiet" command, and give him 2 chances. 3rd time, very calmly put him in the bathroom and shut the door. Once he is quiet, let him out and reward him; repeat as necessary. I'll try this later this week when I can dedicate all of my attention to him. And no worries, there are no lemons in the bathroom that he can hurt himself with.  |
Well now, I had no idea all of this was going on. Did you get anything from all of this? I read the question in your org post and than gave my answer. When I came back is when I decided to actually read from the start.
Was an interesting read, never ever short on entertainment around here.
I hope that the isolation thing works for you. Anything is worth a try when our sanity is involved...I would also try some training with him as suggested before. Nipping the problem in the budd with a quick command will do wonders but you must be consistent with it.
Good Luck !
