[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 468684, member: 84"] Hmm. I treat my dogs like children, with the same consistency ect on rules / training. If they can't mind their "manners" when people are eating they go into their crate. Sounds like your pooch may be un-learning his training because husband is not making him tow the line, and if anyone else is giving in it just makes it worse. Like Betsy, her worst habit is to jump on people. Now in her defense she's short as all get out and it's not easy for a grown adult to bend over and pet her. But I still don't want her jumping, too many grandkids. So I naturally taught her not to jump. Nichole tried to not teach her until she realized Betsy might jump on Aubrey. (betsy and aubrey are the exact same age born 2 wks apart) So then Nichole climbed on board. But then Travis was the main problem. We'd finally get her to stop jumping up and he'd come in and TELL her to so he didn't have to bend down to pet her, and totally undo everything we did. Finally, Travis is on board and now the habit is slowly going away. The rules have to be clear and everyone has to make the pooch follow the rules. Other than that they can spoil as desired. lol [/QUOTE]
