[QUOTE="Abbey, post: 171988, member: 179"] Former trainer advice: #1 - you have to get over 'hurting' the dog. They will not be hurt. #2 - Get a choke collar. One swift yank of it and he'll know you mean business. It might take a few times before he really gets the point. You ARE NOT choking the dog. You're getting his attention. #3 - Do NOT give him any attention after that. If he redirects and [B]looks[/B] at you, then give him a good hug and say, "Good boy." He needs to know who is in charge, and it shouldn't be him. Now. That being said, could I put a choke collar on my husband and have the same results? Hmmm... Abbey [/QUOTE]
