ladybug, Thank you for your advice. I have been a little confused with whether I should keep him away from people when they come or keep him in crate nearby so he can see. Even when he is in a room where he can't see he will bark like crazy. Do you think he will settle down. I have hooked him outsid...

I am starting to use clicker training. Just got the book click to calm. I think I would like to see a video about it as well because I want to make sure I am doing it at the right time. I am determined to get this problem more managable. I would like to have our social life back! Thank you for your ...

My question is if there has been any luck with calming aids like DAP, rescue remedy and ultra calm tablets. I got a Drs. Foster and Smith catalog and thought it might help me with my dog. I have posted before. Our dog duke a 2 yr old male rescue terrier mix about 22 lbs. He is not very good with unf...

Has anybody tried calming aids such as Rescue Remedy,DAP or Ultra-Calm tablets. I just got a Drs. Foster and Smith catalog and was thinking of ordering them. My dog is not comfortable when people he is unfamiliar with come to the house. I am determined to make this a year where my kids and I can hav...

I have tried gateing him in a room off the foyer but he just barks so much I can't even talk to my guests. I would really like to have him in the crate or in a room when people come but ...

Our dog duke a 2 yr old male rescue terrier mix is not very good with unfamilar people in the house. It has been a problem that has plagued us from the start. We got him at 4 months old and growled at some people from day 1. I had one trainer that I thought was good but he was using negitive trainin...

I'm not sure what his breed is. They told me he is a chi mix but he seems to have more terrier so I call him a terrier mix. He is about 22 lbs and can jmp to kiss me in on the lips!!! I walk him in the morning 20mins on a cold day to up to an hour on a nice day. I'm a stay at home mom so I'm home mo...

I was talking with a freiend of mine about my dog. I have had some problems with him barking alot and he is not comfortable when people come to the house. He barks at them and I tell people not to pet him because he may snap. (I have had a trainer) I feel bad about my kids not having many friends ov...
