OR you can make the object not a plesant experiance for the dog.

It might break her of it. I suspect there were a Lot of other dogs where she came from & all had to fight for food .

I suggest an obedience class from your local recreation department or pet store. I would let the dog wear a leash around the house (while you can watch him) and when he goes under the table with the forbidden item and growls, I would haul him out by the end of his leash, saying, "No! Drop it!"

Another choice would be to distract her with a water squirt from a spray bottle anytime she growls at you, or tries to bite. She will soon associate the squirt with growl or snapping.

He has some great ideas along with what the other post has suggested. You can find him at: http://www.thedogwhisperer.co.uk/index.htm or http://www.unclematty.com. Uncle Matty has a whole section on agressive behavior. Good luck! Post a picture of him if you can.

She has to earn her food, treats, toys etc. so she learns who the pack leader. She has to sit & be polite to get anything, including going out. The humans should go through the door first too. She has to be 2nd at all times until she learns. She will learn not to do that pretty fast. She might always need an occasional boot camp refresher course or she might learn for life. It depends on the dog. Mine pretty much do whatever they want but they know I'm alpha because there are a few things I won't allow, such as endless barking. You can spoil a dog as long as you establish who's the alpha from the start. Posted on 04/04/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse
