I was wondering. Some of you might have read about my problem with Jo listening to me outside. Well, I found something I think might work. Can you tell me if its a good proper way that will work??
She has a toy she LOVES. A rope, but only gets it sometimes. She'll eat it in one sitting if left. So when she goes out, comes when called and doesn't bark, she gets her rope. When shes bad, she doesn't. Would she know that she only gets it when shes good? She knows barking is bad. But now, whenever I get home she runs out to get her rope all the time. How can I show her she only gets it when shes good? (you know like police dogs get ropes or balls if they find the drugs or w/e their being trained)
