My puppy barks and howls at strangers who try to pet him. I guess he's scared and I haven't introduced him to enough new people yet. When he does it I instinctively hold his shoulders and stroke him and get him to calm down. My friend says it's better to hit him because I'm condoning his behaviour. What do you think?
