You are the one to make decisions about who approaches the two of you and tells another dog to back off or gives the approach signals - not your little one! If you haven't already, try some Behavior Modification Training techniques with lots of patience & love & fun rewards and re-establish yourself as the leader of your team and giving Pnut clear ideas of just who calls the shots in all situations. Once he knows you're in complete control, he'll likely relax & let you do the decision-making. |
Well if that is the case I have a lot of work to do with him! I am pretty sure he wears the pants in the family.
You know how Cesar Milan says " Discipline, exercise and affection"? Uhhh Pnut gets in this order Affection, exercise, affection and exercise! Haha Is that what created this Pnut monster?
