My Rottie is around 140 lbs and ignores them right now, but I am afraid that he is going to get sick of it. Blitz is not aggressive in the least, however I still worry because he is going on 9 years old and know that he could do a lot of harm to either yorkie. Any suggestions? |
Yes stop your wee ones from doing this. If you feed your Rottie first and they go after his legs, immediately correct them, leash them, and remove them from the food area.
Have you tried walking one Rottie and one Yorkie at the same time? Even short walks 5-10 minutes or so can help create a healthy pack environment.
