Re: Wheels, Runners, Herding Dog!!

Re: Clicker training for being quiet?

Thank you so MUCH, Horace's Mum, this is GREAT!! I couldn't figure out how to approach it on my own, and this is much more specific than just here and there when she happens to be quiet (and there is likely nothing to bark at)!

"All Dogs Come" Episode?

It's been awhile since I saw the episode I'm asking about, so I don't remember the specific breeds or some other details, but there was an episode where one issue was that the middle-aged couple's 3 small dogs, I think of different breeds, would bark excitedly - and loudly - in the window, at dogs o...
