thanks for the VIDEO!! i have been doing this to a"T"..it is working!!
i dropped him off at daycare today.and every opening..i didnt open a door unless he was sitting and calm. he just understands "the look" now..i pause, he sits. UNBELIEVABLE!!
he got two days of dog training as well. this morning at dark-thirty. we both freezed our asses off but he was heeling very well. i didnt even look in the direction of his favorite frisbee park. dog trainer wants to see us at 7:30 on a group dog walk this saturday. we'll be there.
the past two days, he has not been over stimulated at the dog place. all better. thanks. it doesnt help that i put so much pressure on myself to have the perfect dog. i'm a lunatic.
