Dog Ventures Into Water Garden While Owner's Away
Summary:
Dear Mr. Katz,
I found your book both interesting and helpful, especially in teaching my dog new behaviors. However, I'm writing because of a persistent issue.
The water garden is irresistible, especially with birds visiting for a bath. I suspect they're tempting her, but she doesn't seem to notice the fish. Despite trying various solutions, like Snappy Trainers, which make noise, they haven't deterred her. I’ve also kept her indoors, but I’d prefer her outside. Surprisingly, my fiancé’s Malamute, who rarely loves water, couldn't resist the pond. Help!
Thanks,
Sue
Response:
Dear Sue,
Similar to dog-proofing a house, you need to garden-proof your space. When unsupervised, confine your dog to a run. Allow free access to the yard only under your watch. This might take a few months, but it's worthwhile for long-term reliability.
Consider using an electronic collar. It corrects behavior without you needing to intervene directly, making the dog believe the correction comes from the water garden itself, speeding up the learning process. Alternatively, stick with the training collar and use the "No, no, no" method outlined in my book?"it’s equally effective.
That's all for now!
