re: Dog whining in the blind?

It's very difficult it's excitement and both dogs I've had do it. I can live with whinning even though it drives me nuts as it doesn't flare the birds normally. However anything more than a whine isn't acceptable and has to be corrected. WHen that happens best way I have found it so grab the snout pretty tight and verbally correct and continue to do it as soon as it gets to a volume you feel is too much.

Every dog I've had has whined with excitement and I'll tell you it's difficult to stop totally but can be controlled.
