This is the very first time Jaya has shown jealousy towards Jenna, and its getting out of hand.
If Jenna comes towards me, Jaya immediately starts growling and biting at Jenna and actually drags her away from me. If I hold Jenna she barks and barks. Sometimes the bark comes out in a squeak and pain is written all over her face.
I give Jaya the same amount of attention - but she can`t handle us giving Jenna any praise.......Jaya is the alpha - nobody is challenging that... Jenna certainly isnt.....so
What do I do........ its getting out of hand and she`s really being mean to poor Jenna..... I mean its getting to the point that Jenna comes running for us and shuffles behind our legs to get away from Jaya... What do I do......???????? |
i think you need to take control and be the leader...dont let your dog lead you.. maybe crate him when he is mean. sounds like jealousy.. needs a time out.. good luck
