How can I make my dog stop bothering me and my mom?

We give him lots of attention but when we say sit down or get out because we are on the computer or watching tv he doesn’t listen any ideas?

Answer #1

You need to train him.

Giving him attention, but no discipline isn’t going to work. He needs to know when it’s okay to be playful, and when it’s time to settle down.

Answer #2

The reason why he wants attention is ‘cause he’s got energy. My dog will bark at me and pull on my pant legs if he hasn’t gotten a walk. I go by the saying: A tired dog is a happy god. :)

Answer #3

It sounds to me that he is dominant and you need to train him and become a solid pack leader he will listen to. Giving him more exercise would also be a big help.
