This went on for quiet a while. So i quit for a few minutes. then I just started talking to her and putting my hands on her body then head and face and talking sweet to her. she would barely growl at me as I kept doing this, I finally got my hand to the edge of her mouth where part was hanging out and I snatched it and she snapped at me, then I slapped her (sorry) on her butt and told her she better never growl at me again. So far she hasnt. i've taken things out of her mouth lots of times before and she might growl a little but never like this. She was really trying to show me I wasnt gonna get it. I figured if she won, It would get harder and harder for me to let her know who was boss. I think you have to win your battles to keep them from becoming too aggressive. |
Chachi did that one time to me and he actually tried to bite me also. He was hiding under this little couch seat we have. My Husband moved that couch seat and gave him a swat on the behind and he has never did that again. That is the only time he has ever been spanked. Chachi really doesnt like to get into trouble so that works in our favor. Now when he does something hes not supposed to do all we have to do is clap our hands and he will stop
