He is also quite territorial of me. Although he has never bitten me, he charges, growls and bites at anyone that comes near me when walking him. This includes men, women, children... He has no respect of person. He is also aggressive towards his MOM when I show her attention.
I am hesitant about having company over because of his aggressive behavior. I have tried water bottle, loud noises, stern talking...all of which work temporarily at best. Any suggestions as to how to handle his aggression, jealosy, and territorial behavior?  |
training...i have heard cesar milan talk about these issues.. this is a serious problem... get his book.. im sure they have it at the library... you should not let him get away with it.. you are his pack leader.. and he is dominating you
.. you have to let him know that you own his things and his space..
