Secret Penny or coins in a soda can

My Vet told me about this trick years ago and it really has worked on all my dogs, try putting a few coins in a soda can. When she does something you don't like or is dangerous to yourself, children, family or herself shake the can. This works really well on potty training too. They stop whatever they are doing and then you can correct them.

For example if my puppy would stop and start to squat I would shake the can, she would jump but then I could get her outside to potty and then praise her for going outside. They start to associate the negative sound with bad behavior.

I never tried the spray bottle but I know it has worked for a lot of people; this is just another option if you need it.

BTW we had/have those soda cans all around the house the 1st 6 months to a year.
