Teresa so I've read that sticky a few times the past month or so. I've been doing everything on there except when I tell him ENOUGH and QUIET I usually just say NO or QUIET in a harsher tone and remove him from the situation or block him/ distract him. I've done this consistently especially when he barks on walks or sees a dog/person/(or tree lol)

Maybe I just need to continue repeating this over and over and he's too young? He's only 5 months and a 1 week old. I have tried the corrections QUIET, etc like a thousand times already in many different situations so I don't know what's the deal..

I will say this dog is very "watch dog"-like. I've never had one so aggressive. The minute I open the door he will jump out barking. I'll usually tell him enough and quiet then turn back around or not let him out on leash until he has settleed down..which can take a while

As far as spraying with water and doing this on walks, I wonder if he's already just too agitated like someone above said. I take him with me all over the place and am with him most days. He's usually pretty chill, but once a person/dog approaches he will go into 'attack mode'

I think he's a very just got a lot of hormonal aggressive watch dog-like traits right now. Maybe it will go down as I continue to correct him..

PS I'm a guy haha not a yorkie momma!!
