You say you take him to work every day and he has always been so friendly...I think this is the problem...he is guarding his mom...what has started this behavious is hard to say really...but a lot of dogs do. One of our earlier yorkies always reacted like this when I walked him...but never when my hubby did...
I actually just thought of that! I'll have hubby take him out to find out.

It is pretty threatening for a little dog to have people bending over and approaching them from above when they know that they are on leash and can't move away.
Maybe if you are tense and worried about him attacking, he can sense that as well and then he thinks you are tense about the person and he can't trust them. |
We don't have a place I would be comfortable off leash. Besides I need willing strangers...
