Dear Mr. Katz:
I've a six month old German Shepherd named Thor. Possessing read your book, I applied your strategies to him and he responded quite rapidly, to my surprise!
He's fairly good at a sit-stay and down-stay now, which is very, quite useful. I do have a single problem that I could not repair with him though.
Listed here are the situations as well as the dilemma:
Thor lives outside in a dog kennel/pen factor, I stroll him each and every day and play ball with him and usually ensure he has food and water, I brush him and I invest plenty of time with him. But whenever I leave him, he sits and whines for half an hour! He just will not be quiet! And if I go back out to make him cease, as soon as he sees me, he's quiet... but as quickly as I leave, he starts whining and barking again, so I just ignore him, but it has gotten to become such a problem that the neighbors have started to complain about it. I don't make a big deal out of leaving him or something. I just say 'Bye Thor' and leave.
Are you able to help? Christina Hathaway
Dear Christina:
Welcome to the fantastic globe of German Shepherd ownership.
Here's what it is possible to attempt:
1. Wait till he truly starts whining and barking loudly. Then make use of the Bridging strategy as described in the book (No, NO, No) and go back and appropriate him using the collar. Leave the pinch collar on, but preserve the tab with you. Hook the tab around the collar, correct the dog, then take the tab off and stroll away. Please note that you are going to also want to later practice placing the tab on the dog, feeding him a cookie, then taking the tab off, so that the dog will not come to associate wearing a tab with a correction.
2. If Tip #1 doesn't operate, pick a time when your neighbors are away. Ignore the dog. Wait until he ultimately settles down and is quiet... then wait another 2 minutes. Go back to the dog and let him out. Your objective is usually to teach the dog that being quiet will get him what he desires.
3. Just ignore him. At some point he will discover that this behavior does not item the results he desires, but it could take a couple of weeks. Also, increase his everyday exercising regimen, substantially. You could possibly also experiment with altering his dog meals.
Various factors function for various dogs when it comes to this behavior. Sadly, there's no quick cure-all.
That's all for now, people! Adam.
