A regular harness will not help your problem, rather agravate it. Remember that sled dogs wear regular harnesses. A regular body harness encourage your dog to pull. I prefer a Gentle Leader head...

OK Catthy, it looks like you have a problem here. Without seeing the dog and evaluating it but studying your words in your post, I have to say that many dogs are in shelters for a reason and we know...

Hi Jan With more time next week I should be able to devote more time to sorting this with him. It really is his only vice - he is totally adorable the rest of the time. My pup is a cavalier...

I think that by throwing the balls for him when he barks you are actually rewarding the barking, and so keeping this behaviour ongoing. Personally I would try to solve this problem without your...

I've read somewhere it could be a symptom of anxiety, stress or boredom. I'm not so sure if any of these reasons why my ret had this over a year ago. I had to be really stern with him in "leaving"...

Yeah, but you can't get it there. You are doing the opposite of what you should do. I'm not surprised you are having these problems under those conditions. Get the dog in a distraction free...
