Thats pretty bad. You're rewarding him for getting out. Training is essential with dogs. The main thing is excersize, dicipline, then love. You should never reward bad behavior. Also you should ignor your dog when you get home. Greet everyone in the house first, then sit down and let the dog come to you. Then you are showing him that everyone else is higher up than he is. By not doing this you are actually making it harder for your dog as he see's himself as the highest and tries to controll everyone. He will then get frustrated.
