Lola has been with our family for only a week. She is 7 months old. She is beautiful and can be very sweet. However at times she is very hyper and can be somewhat vicious and unmanegeable. ( i dont think she was very loved in her other home / maybe even mistreated) The boys ( ages 5, 9, 14 ) have totally fallen in love with her. She has snapped / growled twice at my five year old simply because he ran past her. We want to show her that she is safe and loved with us but I also can't accept her doing that. Yesterday, I took her to the baseball park where my husband coaches and my boys play baseball. Everyone wanted to pet her but all she did was bark and growl at everyone. She even growled at me when I didnt let her have her way. Any advice ? ....our family spends a lot of time at the park and I would love for her to be a part of it. When we got home she was back to being loving and sweet. My husband and I played with her and she was as happy as can be!
