I need some advice... I got Sukie from a wonderful breeder but she didn't have children around the pups. IN fact she was hesitant to give me Sukie because my son is about to 7 but normally she wont adopt to a family if a child is under 8.
So anyways after getting to know my family and meet my Roscoe she let us adopt her! So Roscoe is amazing with my kids in fact he waits everyday by the front door when he hears the bus coming and can't wait to get his kisses and hugs from them(and his treat that I let them give him while they have their snack). Sukie is so different and i don't know how to break her of this...
She is 4 months old and likes to play with my kids BUT if she is anywhere around me she growls and snaps at them. She doesn't try to actually bite them she just tries to scare them I think...
The the thing is she can't do this! It's not a good habit especially if we were to have company. I do admit she is a total mommy's girl, but how can I break her of snapping and growling at them? (I have two kids) For now I have told my kids not to try to pick her up or mess with her...
It's not like they are mean towards her though they are actually VERY gentle and treat them like babies... Roscoe in fact(who is the biggest mommy's boy in the world) goes upstairs on his own and cuddles with my son until he falls asleep every night then comes and finds me...I think he knows my son is afraid of the dark.
So what do I do? There is no way I am saying I might rehome her or something she is my baby and no matter what this is her home forever!! I just need to curb this...
