@narayani yes, both feet off the ground ;) and I'm sure you can train them out of yapping (and that's the sureness of someone who's never had a dog!) ;-D
Yes you can train them trouble is some people just don't seem to be up for the challenge. Shame because both dog and owner would be happier, not to mention the rest of us. Sorry, just stepping down from my soap box. 🤯
