So you have met the "paw". You use your hands, so do many pyrs. I had
better luck teaching my dogs that if I were wearing dressy clothes or a suit
that the paw was not to be used. Sounds odd but it did solve our problem,
my clothes were not ruined and the dogs could still use the
paw. I also make a point of being sure I dress at the last minute
before I leave the house and change into jeans or cords very soon after
returning.
A pyr off a leash is a "dis-a-pyr". "Come" has not been an easy
concept here either, but I am finding that after several months, Charlie has
caught on and when he sees me coming toward him, he races over to me. I
cannot explain why he suddenly understands but eventually it does just
click.
A fence would keep both the sheep and the dog home but this may not be
practical.
