Our foster is driving me (and T-Bone) crazy. He's two years old and has been in a shelter all his life. Imagine a 60lbs wiggler with behavior of a puppy. He is very sweet natured and more on the submissive side.
But: he loves to hump and nip T-Bone playfully in the butt. She corrects him and leaves it at it. He then rolls over for her. And then starts it again.
I always have him leashed in the house and praise him when he approaches T-Bone is a calm manner and put him in a sit/stay when he acts up.
Is there anything else I can do or am I doing something wrong? I know we've only had him for maybe 10 days, but he seriously doesn't get it at all. Or am I just being impatient? He has never lived inside a house and everything is soooo new to him. He's doing great with his schedule... he doesn't get into things... and he seems to be very smart.
