It is great when we really are communicating with our dogs!<BR/><BR/>I've heard that dogs interpret yelling as barking, so when we yell at their barking, it just encourages them. "Thank you" does seem to work much better.Julihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01636388860994577583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7471646314685890031.post-63731037635174266612007-07-05T15:26:00.000-07:002007-07-05T15:26:00.000-07:00I really do love this blog.

I've found it so much more effective when my dogs are barking to just thank them, then tell them enough. works much better than yelling and getting upset. I guess they probably think I'm upset at whatever they're barking at. I always feel so victorious when I correctly understand what they're trying to tell me.Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10248009124631383353noreply@blogger.com
