I read your training tips page and I have already been doing most of the things you mentioned... Including moving him to the side of my bed (he now stays in the living area) I also have been keeping him leashed inside mostly so I can stop having to chase him which I felt kinda guilty about but since you mention it in your tips I guess it was a good idea and feel better about doing it. I however have always kept water available while he is kenneled... I found a gerbil type water bottle for dogs which is obviously better than him stepping in a bowl... He took to it right away... I don't like the idea of him being left without water since sometimes we have to leave for part of the day. I will be trying the shaker for the next few days... Anything to promote progress is great!
