If ya gonna go down the water direction i would suggest a plant/hairdressers water spray thingy, filled with salt water i have used this before when normal training havent worked, if the dogs barking/wining spray it in the face WHILE or immediatly after, unless it immediate it wont associate it with its wining, tastes horrible, but is harmless and dont soak ya dog through, make sure theres fresh water out though. But if ya dog learns that wining get you there, even if it gets a face full of salty water, it probably will just do it more,really you want to ignore it. Good luck anyway, Why did the previous owner get rid? and do you beleive them? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

riohog 5,939 Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 its a new inviroment for the dog ,and new owner ,, patience! the dog is probbly feeling abit insecure , good luck Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hannah4181 260 Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 Now you have said he is 18mth . . . then the situation becomes one that i would suspect as Rio Hog has mentioned, the dog is probably very unsettled, everything is new and different for him and his anxiety levels will be raised massively. Just time, patience, firm but fair treatment, lots of exercise, good food, and a bit of understanding whilst he gets used to everything and settles into a routine.

MuttleMcTuttle 21 Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 That's good news Nicole Sounds as if he's beginning to settle in now, you've got to give them time, haven't you? No point getting a partnership off to a bad start by slapping the pup around before he's had a chance to find his feet... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
