Where's Peetster's good sound advice when we need it. He's helped me with our new dog. He should be around soon...

We are finding that positive reinforcement is just about the whole shootin' match. Hundreds of repetitions of "good girl" or "good boy" a day when they do the right thing are better than negative reinforcement when they don't, IMO.

Dogs just want to please us.

And you end up with a good solid friend the whole way along.
