Subject: Re: 11 APR 18 by Ultraman on 2018/4/12 0:35:31 Ok......lessons from the dog Guru..... Me..... Those small breeds can be very protective of their environment and their people....especially the kids.... so when they bark or growl at someone at the door that is natural and is a heads up that someone is around. I do not mind that behavior and usually pick the dog up and then they settle down and when the folks come in and he takes a sniff at them I put him down and he is all good. Now if the UPS man comes to the door its on......they hate the brown and the Fed X...... Mail lady is fine..... but when those service trucks come up the drive the lads go ballistic....... we don't know why..... Now my daughter has a small Yorkie who is just mean......small dog syndrome we think..... but he hates long floppy pants and will attack your ankles if you are wearing such an item....... does not matter who you are.....so we pick him up a lot when folks come in the house....... we tried the spray mist and a stern no and he cowers like you just beat him.....but 5 minutes later there he goes again........ we smile when we see him headed out for the plane ride home in his little doggie carrier with his head sticking out the hole in it....... So my advice let the dog be himself and keep after the peeing and pooping because those are not allowed in the house........ my daughters dog uses floor diapers...... yeah......but he hit them 90% of the time.......I told my wife maybe we could get some of those for me.......  |
