How to get a dog to stop pulling clothes off the line
Practice obedience commands.
The first step in trying to get your dog to stop taking clothes off the line is to be proactive about training. Make sure to go outside next to the clothesline with your friend and wait for his or her bad behavior.
You can do this at a time that you are hanging up clothes, or just at another time that might be convenient. If your dog lunges toward an article of clothing, tell him to " sit " or " stay " or " down.
