Hi all. My family has a dog. She is about 4 months now and is very active and gets into alot of things that she shouldn't get into. She does the classic shoe chewing and also eats our toddlers toys! My husband gets angry and pats the dog in her mouth and I feel very bad for her. What do you do to teach your pet not to do things they shouldn't? Is there another way besides hitting?

Train ur dog well,but the result lies on the IQ of ur dog,and u had better persist. If he does something good,feed him with something delicious,if he does something wrong,blame him but dont beat him..
