(outside the car, outside the restaurant...) The two dogs, confined behind a "wall", may turn and attack each other because they can not attack the intruder. Predation is usually considered as a unique kind of aggressive dog behavior, because it is motivated by the intent to obtain food, and not primarily by the intent to harm or intimidate.'' |

| Hi, I have a similar situation with two of my girls, Chattie and Chizzie. Chattie is very protective/possessive of me. All it takes to set her off is for someone to talk to me while I am at my computer or in the kitchen cooking. What has helped our situation is that I have asked that people alert me before walking up to my computer desk so that I can be ready to act. I have a rolled up newspaper (very skinny section) and I show it to Chattie and say NO! in a very firm voice. If that doesn't work, the and they actually engage in battle, I smack both of them with my limp newspaper roll and the noise usually distracts them enough to get them to listen to my NO!!! Good luck..... it will be interesting to hear from others who also have redirected aggression issues and how they handle them. |

| Here is something to try. When Kayko starts to act up tell him to "QUIT IT"(or whatever word you choose). If he doesn't stop, say "QUIT IT" again while squirting Kayko in the face with the water bottle. If he stops, say "Good Boy" and reward him with treats or whatever. Good luck! |
