Today I was doing the dishes and heart Dexter bark/yelp in a weird higher pitched noise and he ran for the door his hair on end. His hackles were all up. I looked out the door and there he was, the mailman. I'm thinking about seeing if either the mailman can not close the flap on my mailbox or if he can start a little training with me in the spring. I'm going to see if he'll carry a couple treats on him and give them to my dog I'll wait outside with Dexter for when he comes by.
This all depends on how nice my mailman is. Or maybe I can look into getting a p.o. box?
Either way I think its a break through. We're still practicing daily with him. We're slowly making progress. We've been practicing again with everyone ignoring him when they come over and he's become much more calm now when people enter our home.
Here's your daily dexter....
