We had to work with a trainer on this, it got so I couldn't trust Joey around my granddaughter. It's not so much that they are jealous, but if you are the primary caregiver, they are protective of you. This is the first time this has ever happened to me, but then, Joey's the first pup I've ever had, I think I didn't establish enough boundaries when he was young. The good news is it's pretty easy to take control again, but it does take some practice. He seems like a happier pup, now that he knows I'm the boss. |
