Well I just adopted a Morkie (yorkie/maltese) who is very dominant. It has been a nightmare outside the home. At home she is pretty ok. I'm not sure of the age of your's, mine is 9 months, but some signs could be not listening to commands that you know he knows, growling at you or other family members, just being stubborn and refusing to comply. lol I would definitely get with a trainer (We are working with one) and keep on top of obedience. Also mastering the walk, as Cesar says lol, so you are in control as oppose to the dog dragging you around where it wants to go. They need a strong leader. Now I just have to figure out how to make our newly adopted one give up her leadership status from her previous owners. Good luck! |
