I'd try to figure out why he is barking. Is he ordering you to pay attention to you? If so then your problem is a dominance issue and not a barking issue.
Here is a link to the Dog Whisperer website, I believe he addresses tis issue. http://www.dogchannel.com/experts/ce...aspx?WT.srch=1 |
most of the time it is during play time or when he is hyper and WANTS to play. Or when I'm standing in the kitchen cooking and not paying attention to him. I'm not sure what really to do about it.
ANy suggestions? EVERYTIME he does it I make him laydown and "quiet" which he does very quickly... but after a few minutes starts up again...
Arg....... any help would be GREAT!
SiLlY BoY!
