Working here on the NILIF. It's hard work especially as I just instinctively reach to pet and such. Also realize that I need to work with both dogs. There are a lot of things they do and have been free to do like getting on couch to sleep or get in my bed when I am in it. How do I handle them? Do I take them down and say anything? That would be punishment to them. The kong is a great idea. It may work for him. Definitely not for Taz, I think this NILIF requires more discipline from me than dogs. But, they say it will become second nature.
yorkietalkjilly I allow barking it's just that he gets going and will not stop.. Also it seems like he is demanding I do something, or talking to me with looking at me and barking. This bark is different and almost like he's communicating to me. I will refuse to do what he wants and ignore him. |
