[QUOTE=Rfwrosie]Well, we took our 7-month old Bayley to the groomer for the first time. Within a half hour, I was told to pick him up because he was too aggressive to groom. When I went to pick him up, I was read the riot act by the groomer who proceeded to tell me I shouldn't have this dog, he has fear aggression and is a lawsuit waiting to happen. She said she was "concerned" for my children and would help me get another puppy. Can you imagine!!.
OMG the absolute nerve of her ! If she is a licensed groomer you should report her. Like what on earth is she doing grooming dogs if she cannot control a 7 month old Yorkie puppy ! As a last resort she should have muzzled him. Grrrrrrr the puppy is smarter then her and knew to be afraid !
I have a rescue dog that is totally terrified...was obviously abused and suffers from fear aggression. I just warn everyone not to bother her and she will not bother you. When family members want to pick her up they know to let her see them and smell their hand first and not to startle her. Poor little thing...she is so sweet and some horrible monster obviously abused her.
Your puppys behavior seems rather normal to me...some puppys are just stronger and more aggressive then others. I would think a trainer would certainly be able to teach the poor baby to calm down and teeth are for chewing not biting !!! Good Luck !
