Dog won’t go out at night

Hello all, my nephew has a three year old GSD. Sweetest pup. He will not go out in the dark before bed, even with chicken in hand, but will go out in the dark at 3:00 a.m. to go to the bathroom. Does anybody have any suggestions? We have tried treats, different family members, different entrances. N...

Re: Dog whistle

Great, thank you both for the info.

I don't mind the bark, but once Allie sees the stimuli out the door and barks, I would like her to stop once I reassure her there is no danger.

I thought, maybe, the whistle would interrupt the bark then I could treat and praise. :wink:

Thanks.

Re: Dog digging indoors. Stress? Medication question

Hi all, Well, it's been a year since my post about my friends dog Lainey. They had the "behaviorist" the rescue league suggested come back to follow up. He pretty much said he was stumped and could not help. Kind of funny for a guy whose been all over the world and "helped" every...

Re: Dog digging indoors. Stress?

Hi Diane, I know how you feel. It's hard when all you have a dog like this, but you do learn to deal with it. After my 1st GSD died, he was great with people, I decided to adopt another one, and man what a difference. It has been one long learning experience. I do feel like Koa was brought to us for...

Re: Dog digging indoors. Stress?

Hi Nettie,

She has been on thyroid medication for about a month and there was a slight improvement at first, but then I think it went backwards a little. Also they gave up on the tethering idea not long after they started.

Thanks for your input.

Re: Dog digging indoors. Stress?

Hi Jacks dad, Lainey has had a complete work up and is on thyroid medication at this time. I am sure you will get scolded for suggesting euthanasia, but I agree with you. Myself having a fear aggressive dog, it has to be considered for the well being of the animal. I hope in this case a different me...

Re: Dog digging indoors. Stress? The plot thickens

Jacks dad, her name is Lainey, thanks for caring :D Since I posted this my friend has reached out to the previous owner again ( when she tried before the answers were very short and not helpful). I have copied and pasted the e-malis in order. I am interesting in what you all have to say. This poor p...

Re: Dog digging indoors. Stress?

Good points by all. The dog does not seem upset when she is tethered and she is very lovable and friendly most of the time, but then all of a sudden, when there is no change in the in the room at all, she gets up and wants to be away. There are two other dogs and she plays with them and sleeps next ...

Re: Dog digging indoors. Stress?

Hi, I shared my post and the reply with my friend. She agreed, but did have a well know trainer who has been around the world and does a lot of work with rescue leagues. He has been at it for 35 years or so. He felt that the dog going into the basement to be alone was not a good thing. The time she ...
