I have a one-year-old male pomeranian dog. He is generally well-behaved, but unfortunately my parents keep spoiling him (i.e.: They are constantly giving him treats for no reason at all). When I first got him I took him to dog obedience lessons. For the first few weeks he obeyed all instructions and commands but after being exposed to my parents' treatment he soon began ignoring commands and instructions. Whilst staying with my parents over the holidays, he appears to have developed the habit of barking at anything (or anyone) who moves outside the house. Taking him for walks is a nightmare as he is constantly barking at other dogs who pass by him. I believe that my parents didnt take him for his obedience lessons during my absence. Is there anyway to regain control or will I just have to admit defeat and live with my beloved (although very spoilt) dog?
Answer
Dog obedience is more for the human than for the dog; the trainer is really teaching you how to work with your dog. That being said, you may need a short review course to get your dog back on track.
Did you learn to use a "hush" or "quiet" command? If not, that is where you should start for the indoor barking. My dog got it right away, but when we added a second dog to our home, she started to ignore the command. As soon as she would bark and then ignore the command, she got 5 minutes of time-out in her crate. Now she is back to obeying.
For outdoor on the leash, try what Victoria Stillwell of It's ME or the Dog (on Animal Planet) suggests. As soon as your dog starts barking, turn around and walk the other way. Another suggestion she gives is this: when you see another dog coming the other way, cross the street and have the dog focus on youâlook you in the eye. Use a treat to get his attention if you have to. She uses the look at me command while she holds the treat up next to her eyes. After the dog has passed by, give the treat. It will take lots of repetition and gradually getting closer the the other passers-by.

Attached is a PDF that has 6 different potty training schedules in conjuction with crate-training. Review them and see what might fit your family best.
Remember that your pup is only 7 months old and so is only now starting to be able to "hold it' for longer periods of time.
Good Luck!!!
