Sounds like you have an Alpha male. I also have one. He is a little over a year old now, but he was a brat for a long time. He was an only child and I got him at 8 weeks. I got him neutered not too long ago, and at first I did not notice much difference, but he seems to be calming down now. He can still be a brat, and we probably are not as strict with him as we should be, but we accept him as he is and that means sometimes he still acts like a brat. Many dogs grab and chew on their leash as they are being walked. I know you are not supposed to let them do this, but I can not see any harm in it. It is just because they are excited to be going for a walk. Walk him and play ball with him as much as you can to wear him out. A tired Yorkie is usually a well behaved Yorkie. Much of his aggression might be pent up energy that he does not know how to get rid of. |
