There is a lot of controversy about scolding. But I believe it's like the new discipline method for kids. It might work eventually but it requires a lot of time and patience. When it comes to kids a good wack on the bottom speeds up the process. As for dogs showing them the spot, and grab them by the back of the neck and give them a shake, with a firm NO.
I am not talking about beating them or rubbing their nose in it. Just some dfirm discipline like their mother would do.
No hate mail please.
Also reconfining might be necessary. I also put their bed or toybox over the spot, to discourage them from going back to it. |
