You mean grab it by the scruff and throw it off? Silly woman if you can't learn to control a dog that big maybe you shouldn't have bought it.

Nothing so brutal.... more a delicious morsel he can't resist being dangled just outside that bedroom door.... Once he's out the door for the morsel, slam the door shut behind him leaving him on the outside of the room.

Fine when it's a pup but you need to have them so that when you tell them to get off they get off.

The woman In the video has allowed the dog to do that and she's using far too many words.... The Dog thinks It's a game...

My dogs have one word commands.... Down. Off, Leave, Stay etc etc

If that was one of my dogs, the simple ' Off' would have been enough.

These commands have to be taught from a very early age with plenty of praise and reward for when they do as they are told first time.

Tone of voice and body language too. I haven't had a dog in years but even I know that much. The dog didn't take her seriously.

My wife tried that firm voice stuff but I thinks a tasty treat works better. A bacon sandwich works for me getting out of bed

Never heard of that but it sounds like something with a lot of chocolate chips, which is never a bad thing.

Urban Dictionary: Chipolata

We got a lot of Chipolata's In Britain.

^Or SOMEBODY, for sure.

My worry is that this is one of those dogs who bites

eventually and the people say "We don't understand,

he was ALWAYS GOOD AT HOME"!

That dog would never be on my bed In the first place and not even In my bedroom.

It's not a case of keeping them out, they know they are not to go In there and they never try.

By the way... My little Minature Jack Russell Is off to be fertilised In a few weeks If her season Is on time by a Jolly nice male Minature Jack called Mouse.

A dog under a foot tall is not a real dog it's a hamster substitute.

I'm doing It because I believe every female dog should have a litter. I'm dreading the four week stage though. When they've got their eyes open and can get out of the basket.... that's when you do a head count every time you walk across the floor and before you sit down.
