steve strom Webboard User Reg: 03-17-2006 Posts: 4203 Loc: Offline	To get a growl would I think, take some amount of threat to the dog and then some reward when he growls. Something like a stranger approaches then runs away when the dog growls. I wonder though Tanith, if you could keep it at a growl. I think it would escalate into barking as he wins. And Dennis's answer of you don't may be the correct answer anyway.
