The worst thing about this situation is how agressive Tina is becoming. She is even getting snippy and rude with our other dog, and she has growled and bit me! But now I don't really know what to do about it. She guards her food and gets pretty agressive about it, and I stop her when I catch her. I just don't know how to keep her from turning into a bloodthirsty 3 lb dog! AND, I feel so bad about this: last night I fell asleep with her in our bed (she is usually crated at night), and I closed my legs together in my sleep and squished her little head and neck between my knees!
I felt so horrible I couldn't go back to sleep. I feel like I'm ruining my little dog! I don't want to coddle her, because it makes her think her mean behavior is ok, but I don't really know what to do! Tina, I feel so bad!!!
