• Michele68 Posted : 7/7/2015 2:37:52 PM HI, this is very interesting, my suggestion is keep him on a leash and if you see him about to "mark" anyone, give him a little tug to break the focus and let him know it's not ok, don't yell or make a huge fuss, just a little pop, and a firm NO. Give that a try, let me know if that works. If you can catch him before he does it that will help teach him not to do it at all. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
