Oops! Trained him that barking gets him outta the crate accidentally, didn't you?
I hate it when that happens - when I inadvertently train something that I didn't mean to. Joey isn't supposed to go upstairs. He's so good about coming when called, though, that he always gets a treat for it. So, what does he do? You got it. Runs upstairs as quickly as he can when he gets the chance so that he can get his treat for coming back! {Yes, I'm still treating him for coming back, though, because I don't want to weaken his response to that command!}.
