"No" - to overly excited leaps at our torso's
"No" - to tearing up his new bed
"No" - to licking my jeans
"No" - to licking sawdust
"No" - to eating planks of wood
"No" - to ferocious leaps at the door when we leave the room
"No" - to eating paper
"No" - to dragging me off course into random wooded areas when I'm suppose to be taking you for a walk.
Basically everything he does right now is a big fat "NO". This guy has so much learning to do. Husband believes I have a lot of learning to be myself. Apparently when I tell Dexter "No" my tone is not aggressive enough and he can see, smell or hear my lack of conviction. However when a girl is all dressed in her finest for dinner and poochy does his signature lunge and lick, complete with muddy paws, then does a girl tap into the aggression needed to convince Dexter that you know what, "No", does actually mean "No".
We have a ways to go, Dexter and I and if we don't start showing improvement soon, both of us are headed for obedience school in the New Year. We've been warned.
