Tibbe growls and grouses frequently as it is his nature to talk back. He is aggressive. I love an aggressive terrier. But he is not aggressive-dominant or a biter - you can reach into his mouth and take out his favorite chewie, play with his food as he eats, etc. But that little toot loves to talk back!!! I think it is cute.
Let your little guy complain if you don't mind it but gradually teach him you are mom and he is kid in a loving, gentle, positive way. He won't change his little 'tude and you will have a well-behaved and happy all-terrier baby.
