I yelled that too, but I also wanted to hit them up side the head about every other page. The book gives you a lot more chances to yell GET A CRATE! and whack them. I’d never have a dog that behaves the way they let Marley act. I wouldn’t let my kids act that way either. Dogs need discipline, rules and leadership. If you don’t do that they’ll set up their own rules, take leadership and give you the rules they want you to live with.
I live with Airedales and Cairns which are both strong willed stubborn dogs but I don’t have any real problems with them They know who is in charge and what my rules are. No tough love required just constant leadership on my part the way they understand it. Oops got to go, the Cairn, (The Morrigan) wants me to chase her. So I’ll play a bit
Yup, I just wouldn’t tolerate that sort of business from a dog, who wants to live like that? But people let their kids act like that too. I don’t get it at all.
