Do you dread hearing your doorbell ring? When the doorbell rings, does your dog go crazy barking and leaping about? Do you find yourself yelling through the door and yelling at the dog at the same time? Do you appear to be playing a bad game of Twister by holding the dog and leaning and twisting to let the person in while protecting the visitor from your dog?
You are not alone; I see this behavior on a regular basis during my training lessons. Our dogs view the house as their personal den that must be protected. If they don’t think you are protecting the den, then they will rise to the occasion. Make no mistake, your dog would rather you be in charge and lead the pack.
The fact is, our dogs prefer that their owner leads the pack. It is very stressful for them to take charge. Little things you may have said or done, communicate to him that you may not take the lead or keep the pack safe. When you learn to communicate to your dog in canine language, you will establish the leadership your dog is looking for.
In just one hour, you can help your dog realize you are the leader and relieve his stress. You can ring the bell, open the door, and have a conversation with your guest without your dog even approaching the door. You too can enjoy tranquility in your own home.
