WILF 48,285 Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 Use the water, it is very effective and wont harm your dog or how it feels about you! lol Quote Link to post
FightTheBan 1,147 Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 Unless it is causing you or your neighbours serious problems ignore it 100%. Do not give it any attention when it is crying and never let it out when it is crying. That is exactly what it wants. Only let it out when it is quiet and behaving. Once you give them it they can be a right pain in the arse. It will grow out of it in no time at all. They all go through a stage of wanting to be with you which is only natural. Encourage good behaviour and do not reward bad. FTB Quote Link to post
