Silly dogs I mentioned in a different thread that I can’t find right now that I had started giving my pups a treat when they come in from going potty, as a reward for good behavior. After having to go out and physically pick Finney up and carry her in the house for 10 years she now comes in the house on her own to get her treat, yay!
This has been working great until the dogs decided to add their little bit to this nifty trick.
Their add-on in their little minds is now anytime mommy comes in the house, when they have been left inside, they want their treat and no, I have not reinforced this behavior but they keep trying. They also go out, do nothing (no pottying), and run back in for a treat.
I’m not sure what to do. Suggestions appreciated. |
