Put him on a leash, even if he cries. His safety is more important than a little tantrum.
If it's just running out into your front/ back yards than maybe a simple purchase of invisible fence. I think that eventually that would train him that past the yard is a no-no. You also could take your dog for longer walks, and at each corner, train the dog it "Sit" every time, look both ways and cross when it's safe. (Keep a small amount of treats on you so then the learning process should get easier when the dog is rewarded.
my puppy panda is a Boston bull terrier/pug, she did that, we bought her a harness and put it on her, she did whimper and all at first but we didn't give in, we would carry her outside and set her down and lock the leash, we got one that was 25 feet but can be locked. after a few weeks she got used to it and now we can take her out with just a collar. and we live right beside a highway. i hope this helps. just be patient with him and remember you are in charge and only you can teach him. good luck. if you get a harness make sure you read the label really good to get his size, don't go by small/medium/large, every one has a different definition for each weight. our puppy is 15 pounds. her harness is med, but for large it's a dog that weighs over 150 lbs. that was on the brand we got. good luck.
In most locales it is required by law for you to leash your pet when outside. Unless the dog is in your fenced in yard. So put him on a leash, fence the yard or build a dog run. Letting your dog run wild is just irresponsible pet ownership.
just keep him on a leash at all times even though ur dog goes crazy. ur dog needs to get used to the leash. or take her to the obedience class. cuz its the law to have a dog on a leash when takin outside
You need to keep him on a leash regardless of his crying, and get yourselves into a training class. A crying dog is better than a dead dog! Good luck.
Sounds like your dog needs an obedience school.
Don't let the "crying" stop you from being the boss. Give him a treatt when he deserves one and not as a bribe to obey you. Otherwise, you
get a fat dog, who won't obey you.
Seek immediate help from a professional canine behaviourist. I recommend www.intodogs.org or ask your vet to recommend you to someone if you are outside the UK. Good luck x
Sounds like you need obedience training first.
You need to train him.
