YT 500 Club Member | Hate to admit it but.. Yesterday my boyfriends sister in law brought over her dog, Snickers is a 3 pound very rare poodle breed, 5 years old. SO so cute. Very friendly with people. However, for the past month we have been trying to get Snickers and Armani to like each. I know that he doesn know any better but you could say that he plays rough. He runs, tries to jump on her and maybe in the process of all of this he is snipping her with his teeth or nails (def not be mean but playing) my question is how can I teach him to be more gentle? Poor snickers was running away, growling and doing anything possible to avoid him I dont want him to turn into that dog that no knows wants to play with

| Maybe you could teach a command, so he knows what you're talking about when you say, "be gentle." My australian shepherd knows the command "make friends," from being a therapy dog, and when he hears it, my boisterous boy turns into a gentle giant... Rare poodle? What breed? You've got me curious...
