I find that picking him up makes him anxious and makes situations worse. Were you holding Denali when he was growling? I typically don't pick Jackson up. |
Denali is six months old and he is not neutered yet but only because his appointment isn't until tomorrow, and i didn't even think about it but my friend's yorkie is not neutered either(he should be though because he is two but thats her personal decision). Denali was fine in my arms but as soon as i put him down he started being mean so i did pick him up, i guess it was my initial instinct. I didn't even think that it could have made him feel more anxious, i think i was just worried Denali was gonna get in a fight and i didn't want him getting hurt.
