She did bite me about a month ago when I tried to take a piece of bone out of her mouth. She growled once as a warning. When she bit me, it wasn't hard and didn't draw blood. The groomer said she didn't draw blood either, but I don't like that my dog is biting at all. Both situations were threatening, so that makes me feel a little better. She's a very friendly dog and loves people. Should I be concerned?

Can a groomer sue me or ask that my dog be put down if she were to get bitten in the future?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I love my dog and don't want her biting me or anyone else.

Thanks!
Biting is very serious behavior. Yes, your groomer or anyone else she bites can sue you.

You need to consult a trainer asap to see if you can correct her aggression.
