heres what i do
first time - open the door and tell him shut up . make sure he understands before i turn my back .

2nd time - make it a little harsher, ( use adjectives and adverbs and promises )

3rd time - go down there with a belt , beat on the pen chasing dog in question in his house while repeating step number 2 .
4th time - go down there with a belt , make true on the promises , not forgetting the adjectives and adverbs .

5th time -on - open the door and say SHUT UP .

most of them "get it" by step 3

cruel and inhumane ? ... i dont think so , i used to get my azz whipped when i knew better but chose not to listen .
