| not sure what to do with Roxy Hi, its Roxy's Mom again. She is getting better with some people.. She is getting use to my grandchildren. But, she still will growl and act aggressive to certain people. I don't know what to do. One man threatened her and stared her down and said he would stomp her into the ground if she bit him.. I looked at him and said "Really you think so" I would rip his head off if he touched her...But, I later tried to explain her to him as being a rescued dog who had some abuse...I don't think it mattered... Anyway I don't want her to do this to run and growl at people because it is scary.. I cannot afford professional training. What can I do???? She is loving and sweet, just certain people she gets foolish... Help |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | One thing you may want to try is medication...it's not that expensive and gosh, if it'll help her re-learn how to feel calm, it'd be so worth it.

YT Addict | Keep her close on a short leash. Teach her to lay or sit down when she greets someone. I thought mine to lay down which is submission and dogs and people know she isn't a threat. Take or have treats with you on walks. |
