Hi, I've had pekes for over 25 years. They are sometimes a tough breed, but can be so loving. They are definitely my favorite (I have three right now and I am fostering a 10 year old peke who was a stray for a peke club I am a member of). I have a male now that is 8 and when someone comes to the door and is actually outside the door, he acts like he is going to attack them if he could get to them, but once they actually get inside, he jumps all over them (rather annoying to people who aren't doggie people) and wants love and all the attention.
Anyway, as far as your problem, I would check out the book "A Loved Dog" by Tamar Geller. She was on Oprah a while back showing her how to train her dogs. She believes in training by not "yelling" at your dogs. I don't like to yell at them either. I don't think that it s productive. I think it is more in the tone of your voice that is better, and maybe raise your voice a little, but not yell. I think that tends to scare more than train. That, of course, is just my opinion. But I do agree with the positive affirmation of training. LOVE and POSITIVENESS is always good in all things in life.
Anyway, not sure if you have solved your problem since I am just coming on this forum and your post was so long ago. I hope you have had good luck with your peke. They are such great doggies, as all animals are in my opinion. Please email if you have any questions. I may not have answers, but I am such a lover of pekes, I love to talk to you about them.
