Seems to work well for some folks, but The Puppy Wizard would
never recommend that as a TRAINING solution...

Oh? Perhaps that's the case when you got NO TRAINING METHOD.

Yeah. That's on accHOWENT of you try to force control and
avoid behaviors you don't have the intellect to HOWEtwit and
intimidate and scold and punish them when you run HOWETA
ideas and information...

NO. That's not EXTINGUISHING the inapupriate behaviors, that's
REWARDING the dog for DOIN the inappupriate behaviors...
supergoofey.

> I agree that until she stops chewing everything

That ain't gonna happen if you continue REINFORCING her
chewing by REWARDING HER with your undivided negative
attention and offering REWARDS for her inappupriate behaviors.

> she shouldn't be left unsupervised indoors,

Takes only a couple HOWERS to pupperly train a dog not to
chew or mess the ENTIRE HOWES.

> unless as I said you can pen her in somewhere safe

You mean, force restraint on accHOWENT of you got NO TRAININ
METHOD.

That's on accHOWENT of the dog becomes anxiHOWES when
you LOCK IT UP because YOU GOT NO TRAINING METHODS.

i woke up.. and did the d/p while walking out of the room and
outstanding praise when she complied. She's got it

come/praise
and she came right out and we did some lovin... i think she's
just
all sorts of confused.. this is brand new.. although familiar with
d/p.. she's not used to me GETTIN it PERFECT

Was a first in this house!

Dinner usually consists of me running around making sure dinner is
not
on the walls and the baby isn't dive bombing from her high chair!

Nope.. we're calm and happy

> Day or two it'll be second nature to each of you

I think i'm getting there.. i felt by the last hour when i was
d/ping
while you spoke i was getting it. like slow motion.. i could see
everyone going for something and i was just getting it all out in
perfect timing... with the kids too.. by the end of the night we
had
moo sleeping with kelly on the floor.. first time ever.. we
praised
him out of howling.. and we actually slept great!

i think we'll have it awhile.. certain things i wanna break..
running
out the door.. front door... etc

Yup.. we set kelly up for the pizza delivery man last night. she
barked and we did sound/distraction... she left the front door
altogether when chris called her.. first time for that too.
