| aggression problem So Nugget is the sweetest little guy to everyone...except my boyfriends family's dog (he's a mutt...a bigger dog he weighs about 85 pounds) sometimes Nugget doesn't mind him and I'm not sure if he's jealous or scared or what but Nugget has nipped, growled and barked at their dog it makes it really hard to bring him over...any suggestions? I don't want the other dog to hurt him...gosh this sucks

| hmm, I don't know, but I would say he is acting out of fear or jealousy. Hopefully, someone else will have better help for you

| My dexter is like that with ALL dogs. I just hold him. I know its a pain to visit for HOURS and have to hold your baby the whole time though! Maybe try to pet their dog in front of Nugget often repeating how nice their dog is while looking right at Nugget. I do that sometimes with other dogs so my dogs won't be aggressive or bark at them. Good Luck!

| thank you...it's weird because sometimes he's fine but if the other dog walks up to one of us (or one of my boyfriends little sister) nugget doesnt like it one bit...he just has to be the center of attention lol ive been reading one of cesar's books and it says to walk them together...maybe ill try that
