Ok thanks Leslie will it hurt her? I'm guessing it will but not too bad. I just put a long lead on her and she didn't go near my daughter so just a writing game thanks
I can not wait until Apollo is out of this stage! There is a battle every day between him and my daughter. It usually ends up with a teenager hormonal crying/ screaming freaking the heck out while either me or my husband have to pin him down. She's too much of a sissy to grab him and pin him down. She just flings are arms around which only makes it worse! "Take him to the farm John" has been my saying for the past few weeks. ( from Marley and me)
No it won't hurt her, it will pinch as an attention getter hence the name pinch collar. My female was an awful walker this changed her tune quickly and she's been wonderful ever since.
Your actions speak so loudly I cannot hear your words.
My first male i had used to nip me all the time,tried everything he just wouldnt stop.started becoming sore when he got to a year.one day as he bit me i grabbed him ,bit him on the ear,he gave a yelp and that was the end of the nipping.our new male ,Abel(6 months) started the same thing with my wife, told her to do the same.she was extremly hesitant but eventually tried it and it worked.sounds crazy and a bit wild but its worked for us with two males.Think its also a way to to deliver a "unforgetable message" haha
Ok will try the pinch collar strangely enough she has ent done it since that night don't want to speak to soon maybe me pinning her down made realise time will tell. Will only try that at last resort warren that sounds scary lol thanks again for your comments
Apollo bit me yesterday and ripped my leather jacket. I was piiiiiiiiiiist!!!! Warren, I'm going to try the ear. I usually pin him and bite his neck. Apparently that's not working. LOL!!!
Leslie, I have to sit on him now. He's just too big and easily over powers me if not. The problem I have is he snaps at my hands. He gave me a huge hematoid a few weeks ago on my index finger. I didn't even feel it until my adrenaline wore off. All of a sudden I was like "ouch, my hand hurts". I looked and my knuckle was swollen and black! He's also pulled my wrist out of its socket. I read something over the weekend, and maybe the karma monster will get me, but I laughed so stinkin hard. I need to post it!
@ apollosmama- shame snapping is not cool.But def try the ear thing it works. iv come to know EBT's well so i can normally correct them long before anything happens but somtimes when walking or on the beach they do get a bit out of hand ,a bit of a twist on the ear corrects them quickly aswell.
