Whining problem2007-11-25 2:55:09

If your dog is whining or howling when you are at home, either for attention or just out of habit, the first step in stopping this is to provide your dog with daily routines of play, exercise and training. Often these special times of undivided attention will stop the dog from whining the rest of the day. Secondly, pay attention to your dog only when he is quiet. Ignore him whenever he begins demanding your attention by whining. Each time you give in to your dog's whining demands, you are training him to continue whining. If you want a few moments of peace, you can teach the dog to be quiet on request. Gently ask your dog to please 'Stop Whining.' If he ignores you and continues whining, immediately shout a very loud, 'STOP WHINING!' or squirt the dog in the face with water. After a few repetitions, the dog will get the idea and obey the first gentle request of 'Stop Whining,' rather than get scolded or doused with water.

Unusual whining or whining that starts suddenly when it never existed before may be your dog's way of telling you that something is wrong. See your veterinarian right away to be sure no health problems exist.

Its hard to tell because we don't speak their language. Just be sure you are meeting all her needs. That she has gone outside, ate...and that you're spending some time with her. If you cannot find any problem, it wouldn't hurt to ask a vet.

Sometimes after you do everything possible that you have thought of, they just want to be loved like any baby or child. Sometimes just pick hin up and hug him for a minute and see what happens. Then again, if it continues, he may be trying to tell you something is wrong and maybe have the vet check him out.
