You could also practice havng a family member pet the pup in your presence and if he didnt growl then give him a treat.
Now all i have to do is whisper noooooooooooooo and she looks at me like "uh oh i am in trouble"  Good luck |
I would think that with a dog that already snaps at people that the first part might not be the best route to go, one could end up with a finger bitten, but the part about holding him and rewarding him when he doesn't growl/snip at people is a great route to try!
