yEPP courtnek! FoR SuRe! :D

pei obsessed- thanks! sorry i didnt see your post! i agree. my friend said that she can take anything away from her other dog w/o growling but when she tries to take something away from the lil one when hes doing something wrong, she gets growled at.thanks :) Black GSD-Her Son is 21 or so.

BLACK GSD--Icouldnt thank you enough, after reading your advice..i checked a website and it said the following: (Seems like you are absolutely right :wink: :D ) i called my friend and she said to say thank you very much! Once you get to the point that a dog growls *at* you or a family member it is time for professional help. You have no time to waste. The first order of business keeping the dog and the children apart, and avoiding doing anything likely to cause aggressive behavior. Second is a complete physical to make sure there is no physical cause (e.g. pain) that is causing this. This is NOT normal for a well bred dog. Explain the problem to the vet and ask for references to a qualified trainer or behaviorist. Some advice givers are fond of telling people you could just kill the dog - I don't think much of that as a first step. Instead have the dog evaluated so that you can tell if the situation is stable, and if it can be improved. Just getting rid of the dog might solve your problem with this dog, but unless you determine the cause you will be unable to prevent it in future dogs. The reasons for such behavior vary widely and the best response is very individual to the dog and the situation. What works beautifully for one dog will be worse than useless for another. No book or on-line advice can tell you whether this is a simple problem readily resolved, or a difficult one in which the dog cannot remain a member of the family. You need to have someone come to the house and observe the situation. Body language, noise, dog-human interaction are all critical factors in evaluating and correcting such situations. Do not wait for it to get worse. I can't tell you how likely it is you can correct the situation now, but I can tell you that it will not get better on its own. It is a minor price to pay for addressing a potentially dangerous situation without just giving up on an important member of your family. Your veterinarian, other veterinarians, trainers, your SPCA or humane society, shelters and rescue groups are all good sources to check for recommendations. If you decide that the dog cannot remain a member of the family, please do not lie or mislead about the reasons you are giving the dog up. First you can be held liable for any injuries, perhaps even criminally liable. Second, a person who is aware of the dog's problems will be better able to evaluate it, and if possible place it safely. If the dog is unsuitable for your home do not endanger someone else, seek and accept the advice of shelter/rescue/SPCA.

The puppy is 3 months old and a lasa apso. I made a mistake--my friend just told me that its the puppy taking the toys from the other one..even if she gives them 2 toys, he goes to try and take the others When this happens, she said "no" and put him in his kennel.

Ahh...I've had the same problem..As most of you know, my Irish Wolfhound Boomer had been dropped on the side of the road in a town nearby so when we found him, we brought him home...when we went to pet him he would put his tail in between his legs and put his tummy closest to the ground as possible as if he had been beaten recently..we also found a few sore marks on him...A Few weeks later, Boomie realized he had a home, where people and other doggies loved him and after getting along and playing with Holly, he adapted to this home and now he is as a "happy as can be 2 year old (size of a 5 year old :P lol)" and i dont even know if he remembers his awfull experience! WHAT CRUEL PEOPLE TO DO SUCH A THING :evil: but i think if you just give him time to adapt and show him u care for him, he should adjust. Let us know what happens! :D Mich

My friend has a new puppy and she tells me that when he doesnt get his way, he REALLY growls AND bites! He bites at her,her son,and her Dog! If he has a toy, and the other doggie trys to take it he bites and growls. Help Please! It's Getting To Be A Serious Problem!

Well i think everyone's advice is great! Ellie-Volounteering At A Shelter Would Be So Great! To Show How Much This Really Means To You! Also, you could drive ur mom to a shelter to show her how beautiful and loyal dogs are :D

LC, I Didnt Know You Had A Dog Named Holly :wink: I Thought You Only Had Lucky And Chaos...My dog is named Holly too!

Black GSD- I KNOW it has to stop immediatley..thats why i came here for help. And THat Vet With A Degree And I Disagree With You, She is Not A Moron, says it is because he was seperated rom his mom at an early age. Thank You Though :) Courtnek: Thanks, yea he does need to be neutered but the soonest he can be neutered is at 4 months and a half my aunt was told by the vet. Thanks Guys, But YourMaking This Puppy Sound like a brat, he's not... But Thanks :wink:
