If he tries to bite you then he thinks he's higher in the "pack" than you are.

You need to show him you're boss by taking away his food/bed/toys at any random time (give them back afterwards, obviously) just to show that YOU'RE in charge and can do what you want.

I know exactly how you feel my dog does the same thing! I use a spry water bottle to spary him with when he goes after the clothes on the clothes line. When he gets in the trash, I make him look at what he has done and flik him on the nose. Pretty much when he does something wrong I either flick him on the nose or just use the spray bottle. And now it becomes less! It works, you got to let him know who is in charge. Don't try to be to mean though, cause he might keep doing it, just to get at you.

Nah, they're yours. Only give lend them to the dog after he's done walking, has been rested and fed, and is calm.

First off, close the bathroom door at night so he won't get in.

Since he apparently likes chewing, give him something besides your clothes to gnaw on- like a bone or toy.

My sister's beagle goes through the trash constantly. She knows its wrong too because every time I see it on the floor or go near her she just drops to the floor and goes all submissive. Tried the flicking on the nose, spray bottle, etc and I don't want to move the garbage can.

get a large stick and every time your dog dose something you dont approve of whip him with it, it may seems harsh but its the only way he will learn being a rottweiler! they only respond to pain

Have you tried a spray bottle full of lemon juice? Works ten times better than water. Or squeeze a lemon or orange in their face.

This is some good advice.

go to your local animal shelter, they should have good tips on training that doesn't involve pain for the dog (which can cause breeds like rottweilers to become unstable and violent) For now, lock him in a kennel overnight. You may also want to try leaving a radio on during the day while you're gone. My parents' dog did the same thing with the trash until they gave him some entertainment (in the form of talk radio)

Anything spciy, citrus-y or bitter deters most dogs, though some develop a taste for the citrus. you can buy special bitter no-chew sprays at the store. on the cheap, hot sauce or lemon/orange oil from the rind can be applied to surfaces you don't want the dog to chew. so, apply the toilet paper holder and the lid of the trashcan. added bonus, it might make both areas smell better.


just an idea, does anyone see an ingredient in burt's bee's herbal insect repellent that can't be used the same way? ingredients list can be found on the internet, and i know it smells strongly of citrus.
