Did you know that using a time out method with your dog's bad behavior can be beneficial? I have found it is an effective way to get the message across to your dog that you are not happy with their behavior.
One fact is true with dogs, they love getting attention from us. If you take away the attention when they are exhibiting bad behaviors, they will notice. In fact, they will probably put up quite a fuss, howling, whining, barking to name a few things to try and get your attention. You need to be firm and ignore them. Isolating them away from you is necessary for success. I use one hour as a time out period. You have to be persistent in using the time out method, use it everytime not once in a while. It is also very important to use time out as soon as a bad behavior occurs, don't wait. If you do, they are not going to have any idea why they are in time out.
