I would forego the scruffing, as you're not getting the correct response from it. I am a fan of growling like a mama dog though. You may have to try a few different kinds of growls at different pitches till you hit on one that will stop him in his tracks. Results will be immediate, then you can growl and add a 'no'.... he just doesn't understand English yet, lol. Plus it's his first time away from Mommie, and she was his 'Off' button. |
