I need to clarify that there is a size differential. Sadie, while a thin, wiry dog is at least twice the size of Joey. He's a little 3 1/2 pound muffin. If she is pulling him bythe ear and he is squealing, then I have to intervene. I need to do it calmly and I guess I need to teach them some behavior modif. but I can't afford a trainer right now. Also, it's not like they can't be together. Sometimes they sleep side by side or both on my lap on the couch. It just seems that Sadie's aggression has heightened a little lately. I feel like she is a jealous older sibling, but I don't know if it's accurate to attribute human attitudes to pups. |
