My understanding is that he is trying to make his place in the pack and he wants at the top,this is where you are supposed to be. Gating him in an area where he can be seen and not touch the other dogs. When giving treats or feeding,he gets his after the other dogs. Speaking with a behaviorlist is a great idea. There are several people that train dogs on this forum,possibly they will add some good advice. Give the little guy some time. He started out ruff as a rescue,he has been put into a new pack,he has adjusted to his new surroundings and is now trying to figure out where he belongs in the family unit/pack. |
