Let her sniff towel, put it in her bed... Repeat (with fresh towel in J's bed so as not to spook him!) until Smooch is actually looking forward to Johnny's scent...<br />2. Lead Smooch briefly past the kitty door (when J is sleeping), let her pick up the scent while praising and giving treats. No need to repeat.<br />3. Try to be near Smooch when Johnny comes out. Stop her barking with a quick touch (fingertips) to her shoulder, just hard enough to get her attention. Show her treat. When she is quiet for a few seconds, give treat. Repeat as needed; she should learn *very quickly* that Johnny is a new member of your pack/herd, and a desirable one at that. :) sundognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-47496086413382514962013-06-11T04:12:18.671-06:002013-06-11T04:12:18.671-06:00What a handsome fella :)What a handsome fella :)Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03847259789563218030noreply@blogger.com
