How can I get him to walk on a leash without choking himself?

So he’s always acting out and having that “puppy behavior”, but I want to train him.

When someone new comes into the house, he jumps all over them until they leave, even if they’re at my house for hours.

When I make him sleep in my room, because he tears ANYTHING and EVERYTHING in the house up, he then tears whatever he can get his mouth around up in my room. And also, he’s never comfortable in my room. When I shut the door and he’s in my room, all he does is sit and the door and whine until I let him out, even if I’m trying to play with him.

He wont stop attacking my 2 other dogs that are outside. I let my pom out there to go to the bathroom, and when I do, he’s always biting and chewing on the others. One of them is a Lab and much bigger than him. My lab is old and doesn’t attack back, he just lets it happen. I can’t stand that my pom wont stop it! He also tries to attack my other dog, who is a chow/pitbull/RW mix and VERY aggressive towards other dogs when another dog tries to bite him/mess with him… Which worries me, because I let my pom run around out there. They’re perfectly fine until my pom starts messing with the bigger dogs, and I have to bring him back inside. I want him to be able to hang around them, because he enjoys it… But I can’t let him do that if he can get hurt at any moment!

Any tips? 10 pnts to best answer. :)

I’m not looking for the clicker training method. I just want her to associate tricks with voice command and hand signals.
I was hoping for a site that showed what kind of hand signals I could associate with each trick and like a step by step explanation. Got anything like that?

But she is 5 years old and so is it too late to start her on that?

What might be other dogsport opportunities for her? I know that there’s dog sledding but we don’t have very much snow where I live, nor the materials at our house/area.

It’s a great method to communicate with the dog – have him think and problem solve. But in presence of distractions and other temptations, it doesn’t necessarily instill reliable obedience.

Please suggest methods, advice, books or courses. Thanks!
