[QUOTE="Annie, post: 3137061, member: 42224"] Look, dogs learn ... Right now he is getting positive reinforcement from his behavior. He gets to get a bigger territory AND challenge and chase stupid humans (no offense). A half-hearted jab or smack will only serve to embolden him and make you have to resort to actually injuring him to get him to back off. I know it sounds harsh but you GOTTA get him under control before he actually gets on you or someone you love. I grew up in a veterinarian's clinic. There is no one who loves animals more than me ... Except maybe [USER=5425]@caojyn[/USER] ... Lol ... I had to make myself a drink and bawled my eyes out after Dawg and I tied up the last time. He was clearly sore for several days after. But honestly he was so bad, and is so stout, my next choice was to put a bullet in him. He was "that" close, too. I'm glad it didn't come to that because I'd be sitting here second-guessing myself instead of loving on him. Tough love is a good thing sometimes. [/QUOTE]
