I'll fill a Kong with peanut butter stat.

He normally goes out by himself at night through his door, unless my mum is not home. If he barks at me tonight, I will get up and take him outside.

Thanks for your advice!!

Thanks. He took one look at the Kong and a single lick. Maybe I'll try a plate instead, because he's never been a fan of the Kong. He loves peanut butter though.

Don't give him the Kong inside. Put some peanut butter around the opening, give him a lick and then throw it outside with him. If that doesn't work then try the plate.

The Kong is outside. The plate is now outside. He doesn't want to touch either. Will try again later.

He is.

He would lick the peanut butter off my finger but not the bowl or the Kong. I put my finger in the bowl as well, forget it.
