Editing made the thread a bit thin. There is more detail on the page.. I always thought that when I told a dog to stop barking, it just thought I was barking back. I found sometimes if I whisper, they stop barking because they can't hear what I'm saying. The clip is from a site that is "for dog and cat owners who want to get the most out of their relationship with their pet." It's good how pet owners have the same problems, and when they find solutions they are so relieved they want to tell other pet owners how they did it. Knowing 'exactly what they are going through.' Sometimes it's the way we look at the problem, and how easy it is to blame the dog, or cat, when we are the ones who are supposed to be smart. It's amazing how long it can take some dogs to train their people.
