I am in my first week with a 5 year old ex-racing greyhound.
When outside, in other homes (not mine) he will bark and roo a LOT. This starts after being outside for about an hour. He has been exercised and is with several other dogs. There is no pack difficulty.
How do I end this without accidentally reinforcing it?
I am convinced he wants attention. The best I can think of is to call him, make him sit on his mat, reward him and go back inside.
But this repeats the pattern of barking - as he gets my attention!
Any ideas, I am clueless on this.
