Perhaps op can train him to go in his "home" (crate) when she points and say "go home"...my pups sometimes run in their crate when they know they benn Miss Baddies on their own, the door is open almost 98% of the time, they go in there for snoozes, to chill, they take their treats in there to eat them, its their own private little den, they don't view it as punishment its theirs. I have a soft house I purchased at a drugstore in my living room for each as well, sometimes they prefer that, either way when the crap hits the fan...they know where to go!
OP please don't take it personal, remember all we see is a pic....it is cute but could also be dangerous and viewed by some as harsh.... |
It is distrubing to me, but I didn't want to say so. It really bothers me to see even the ones in time out cages. I am sure it was not done in a mean way but it just broke my heart when I seen those eyes.
Mine goes in time out for maybe 30 seconds behind the gate and I can only take those eyes for about that long. Dont want to even tell you how many times I have teared up when I saw them sitting in the chair by the window watching me leave with those sad eyes. I am too soft I guess.
