Hey Eric,

You can have a double problem there.

First, you can have a traditional seperation anxiety problem going on if the dog is not used to being seperated in this way from you.

Second, the problem can be made harder if the dog feels vulnerable because he is tied.

You can fix half the problem if you had the option of putting the dog in a more open fenced in area or seperate room in the house, maybe even a crate if indoors and not out in the open.

If not an option or even if you do use one of these options, you may have to work on traditional seperation anxiety issues by following your standard leadership exercises (step 5 on the triangle) and following your step 8 (seperation anxiety drills). Get him used to wear ever you plan on seperated him on a daily basis for shorter durations and make it as positive as possible for him. Maybe feed him out there or give him a special treat that lasts a while only when he is in that place. Try to bring him back to you before he gets all worked up. Set him up for success and make the duration a little longer each time. This can take patience. Definitely make sure he is not all over you when you are physically with him. since seperation when you are not present is easier for the dog when he can deal with seperation first when you are physically available.

I hope this helps to start.

Thanks for the compliments on the site and vids. More to come. Just posted first phase 3 vid also a new protection video will be up by late tonight (my time).

I want to PM you soon to write about a few things. I’ll be in contact soon!

Sorry disappeared for a while. just finished a move and was out internet. Ready to roll again! Can’t wait to see your vid when ready!

Well Mike, here it is…. the first one… Taro, a Pit Bull.
Came knowing nothing as far as trained behavior goes…so wild and rowdy to start!

Now, listens quite well… although still need to smooth it out a bit, longer consistency as you mentioned. 33 days!

Well Mike,
I think I figured out the answered before I read your reply below! 🙂
So, yes… you’re spot on! I built a large cage for Taro and Lady, and they seem to be calmer. Only the separation drill is needed to be exercersised immediately now! They’re ALL OVER me when I arrive from work!

Again, thank you for your advices Mike! Wonderful stuff here… I’ll be uploading my result VIDEO today for you to see! Now, this is as a result of your training method! Check out the result! 🙂

Did you PM me?

at me, to untie mike… I know it’s not the best situation… but I have to tie him up every now and then when having visitors over. So, he would bark and bark for a while until he calms down or until I untie him…

As you know, pitbulls do not bark at people but other animals for sure. Same case with my boy Taro.

I have posted a “Before” video of my pitbull in my site mike and will upload the “After” learning from your videos soon! You’ll be amazed… my dogs are magically transformed! Thanks to you Mike! The videos help a lot….wonderful stuff.

Mike… could really use the tips and pointers here! My dogs are very UNFAMILIAR with leaving things alone! What is the key concept Mike?

Also… do you know how to make your dog stop barking when they’re tied up?
