I totally understand the difference. It is a like throwing a dice. I read an article from Cesar and others about training the dog not to do it.
When you catch him you use an intimidating voice and say the word NO.
Abby knows that word so well that when she is doing something she is not supposed to do she stops in her tracks.
Neutering is definitely better for the reasons you mentioned.
The dog checks most of our boxes, so I am most likely going to take a chance. We trained our Abby not to jump on the couch. I have not dealt with marking with my two males that have passed. This will be a challenge. |
