While...Kris,<BR/>I have thought and thought about this. While you are HOME, try crating her and then sitting in the same room as her so she doesn't associate the crate with separation? You have to remember, you are doing an injustice to Sydney if you treat her like a human. She needs discipline, so don't hesitate to show her that you are in charge if she starts tearing at the crate while you are with her. That's all I can think to do. Also, fill a coke can with pennies and then duct tape it shut. When she starts the bad behavior, don't let her see you do it, but toss the can so that it lands near her. Apparently (I heard this from a dog trainer) the loud noise stops the behavior and the dog believes that their environment is angry with them, not their owner. Hope it helps.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3399035719528796062.post-48808697030451814112007-11-07T11:40:00.000-05:002007-11-07T11:40:00.000-05:00i forgot to leave this on em's entry about syd - c...i forgot to leave this on em's entry about syd - can you get a baby gate and gate her someplace? do you think she'd take to that better than being in a crate? just run her around beforehand and make sure she does her business and all that and make sure that there's nothing she can get into?lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00469089424457495743noreply@blogger.com
