Any help would be appreciated. Milo only guards food or bones with other dogs. He allows me or any human to take anything right out of his mouth no problem, will even respond to drop it. Another dog is a whole nother situation, he growls and confronts, and lifts his lip (I can even stick my hand in his mouth and take it away from him while he is growling) I don't know what to do or how to correct him. 98 % of the time we are around other dogs there is no food or bone involved, and I am not sure if causing the situation to correct is is my best course of action. What would you do?
