I usually take her bone away when she gets aggressive, and she barks for it and I just give her a firm no and she forgets about it for a while. And yes, a yorkie silky mix. Where I was reading, they said that " when a silky believes he is a boss, it's temperament changes. It may become demanding, protective and may begin to bark a lot" and I have noticed she barks a lot more than normal the last month. I think she picked up is behaviour from my moms Pomeranian. My moms Pom. growls whenever my dog would go sit on the couch while my mom is holding her. My dog isn't dangerous to people or anything, it's just other animals she barks at them when they go near her when she has a bone, or when she's with me, or my mom, anyone really. She wants all the attention on her lol |
