More biting. I want to say that Chewie really is a great little puppy. She's calm, playful, quiet, and so sweet. To myself and my husband, and pretty much any animals (with a few breed exceptions) other people. My daughter she adores. She even will rub Elina's scent all over her, just like she'll do for the rest of us.
I've done what was suggested, and it did work a bit, but only in regards to the resource guarding. Until her trainer comes over for one on one, Daughter stands her ground and then stops playing. Today, though, daughter wasn't ANY where near me. Chewie literally showed she wanted some play time with Elina. She was basically "correcting" my daughter when she didn't hold the bone correctly. One high pitched bark, and then a quick nip. Husband, AGAIN, was against the alpha roll, and I explained that July wasn't really soon enough. She had to show submission. I'm just needing either affirmation that this is the correct path, or if there are any other suggestions. |
