, clicked their heels and said:
Well it would be difficult to tether him to my waist. I work from home
and rarely have on clothing with belt loops, usually sweats or bathrobe,
etc.
Get a long enough leash and put it under your butt. When walking, put
it around your wrist.
What kind of correction do you suggest for
pulling on the lead? I mean he gets to the end and chokes, isn't that
enough punishment???
Short pops are often an effective correction for dogs who don't mind
pulling on a leash and choking, Alternative collars or harnesses are
also useful.
H likes for them to run so he can chase them. I
am convinced he will not hurt them, but loves the chase.
Doxies are meant to kill vermin. Don't allow chasing of cats.
Well if the weather is pretty, not now we are in an ice storm, he can
play in the yard all he wants. He is an outside dog as I could not
ever get him housebroken.
Make him an indoor dog.
But now, being tethered he acts as if he is feeling punished
and looks a little sadder.
Get over the "sad" stuff. Did you read the x-pen suggestion?
