Well...wasn't sure WHICH forum to post...part is off topic...but here goes.
I've been working with Doodle for months now and she's doing awesome.
most of ya are aware of how I came to get Doodle, by abandonment.

Problem 1: Doodle is quite vocal, ie: I'm outta the room...don't like her her freshies.etc

Problem 2: Tim, the other half, HATES Doodle, but Doodle likes him. (God knows why)

I'm trying to train Doodle to stop the unnecessary screeching ....now the BIG PROBLEM...
Tim will tell Doodle to shut up.....<bleep> ...on & on. I tell him to STOP GIVING HER ATTENTION and IGNORE IT, so I can do my job and reward when quiet. It a vicious cycle!!

I'm about to go to the Adult Shop and get Tim a ball gag!! I'm about at my wits end with this. Suggestions anyone??:headwall:

Sounds like your problem is not with Doodle...you might need to re-direct your training efforts, because it appears that Doodle is doing something that comes naturally...responding to direct attention from "the :eek:ther half".....

Good luck with your training efforts.....
