Louis, my Cavalier King Charles is about a year and a half. When its just family, he is a perfectly normal boy, playful but obedient. When friends come over, he GOES NUTS. And now, friends are saying they don't like him...They say he is annoying and crazy.

He is definitely more demanding then Ella, but he does sit and lay down on command. I think its the way my FRIENDS interact with him, they provoke him by staring directly at him, waiting for him to behave badly. Its a chicken/egg scenario now. Also, I think he senses their nerves.

He is less then 12 pounds! I am not talking about non-dog people either! AND on top of it all, I have put up with her toy poodles RANCID breath and never said anything since I was 10 years old and this one friend is constantly making comments about Louis' behavior and if he passes gas....Am I an overprotective mom who needs to train my dog better? Or do I need new friends???
