Fido has never growled at be for taking a bone of him  but the yorkie bitch I sometimes babysitt does that, she doesnt want me taking the bone of her, I just take it from her whatever she says, thats the best way, and if the dog lets you take the bone/treat then you compliment him/her very much and maybe let her have it again 
It is VERY important to take the food and bone from the dog sometimes while he's eating it,and if he lets you have it with no proplom you compliment him very much and let him have it again, thats the best way, I did it with Fido since he was a puppy |
That is EXACTLY why she got it taken away from her, and I layed her on her back to let her know who is in charge!!!!! By the end of the night, if I came near her, she would drop the bone right away, and lay down, and then I would praise her for GOOD behavior, and gave it back to her.......
