Hi Nora, I posted under tearing off her clothes in Just Chat but this is a big problem for us.

How do I train Fred that it is unacceptable to rip off Alice's sweater when they are outside? We tailgate and even cook out in the winter. I would love for them to be out there with us and I find I have to keep them in the house a lot because Fred catches her by her sweater and rips it off her or stretches out the neck.  She wiggles out of it then freezes and I have to take her inside where I know she doesn't want to be but I can't keep her out in the cold without it. Can I train this out of Fred when they play? We yell NO but in that much activity he doesn't hear the no or let it go.

Thanks Nora,  I won't be sending the messgae not to play right? I just want him not to rip her sweater off but they can play their hearts out.

UGH, it is so crazy, they need to go outside to run around otherwise they will go stir crazy but it is so cold I hate to put them out there without sweaters. It's a crazy catch 22. I swear when Fred is chasing her he hoones in on that damn sweater and catches her by it. He must think she is a giant sweakie toy and she loves it! Once he gets hold she tries to wriggle right out and between the two of them they have it ruined in 4 minutes. UGH.
