My Lexie has the same type of personality. I've tried everything I know of to get her to accept people approaching her but so far nothing has worked. She seems to be very protective and if people insist on getting in her space she nips them and barks and lunges right at them till they back off. She also makes sure she gets the last word in. I also advise people she is a nipper and not to try to pet her and if she gets into one of her rages I remove her. She is 17 months old. We have two older yorkies one is 6 years and the other 5 years -- neither of them like kids but they like older adults. Hopefully Lexie will calm down and be more approachable as she gets older. Her she is -- don't let her face foul you -- she is a rotweiller in a yorkie coat. |
