Barking When Given Obedience Commands

• Barking When Given Obedience Commands faol Posted : 4/22/2006 5:46:15 PM At first it was cute.  You would tell Zoe to sit and she would bark before sitting, but now it's just frustrating!  Why does she bark when we give her a command?  Is she just excited?  Or is giving us what for?     LIKE 4 REPLIES 290 VIEWS LAST POST LINDSAY- BERNIE'S MOM Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• cakana Posted : 4/22/2006 8:24:32 PM My lab, Buffy, does that too.  I hold the treat, say "sit" and she woofs loudly and then sits.  I've often thought "now how do I train that out of her?" but figured it wasn't worth worrying about.  She's the hyper of my two and I think she just can't restrain herself sometimes. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Lindsay- Bernie's Mom Posted : 4/23/2006 11:42:41 AM Try withholding the reward until she sits without barking, then treat. She will probably bark more and louder until she sees you are serious. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
