Is your dog resilient? And if so, how do you deal with it?
Zora just doesn't get it someone times. You can reprimand all you want, tie her up and ignor her all you want, she just does not get it sometimes.
For example:
Right now, leash manners are a problem again. A few weeks ago, she started tugging at her leash and jumping up on you and nipping at your calves. It's extremly annoying - but she is extremly resilient. We haven't gotten behind the reason she does it. Sometimes it's at the start of our walk, sometimes at the end. Doesn't matter. She laughs at voice reprimands. If you hold her back or down, she thinks its a game. If you tie her up on a tree and ignore her for a while, she just pull on her leash. She just tries and tries again.
Another example:
In the evening we usually spend time on the couch. She is welcome to lay there with us, but it's not play time anymore. She will bark and chew on you and try to get your attention over and over again. We usually throw her out into the hallway, but she appears to not get the concept that if she barks or chews on you, she will not get to be in the room. This has been an on-going issue though
