Hi!! We are working thorugh one issue at a time. The trainer thinks that her aggressiveness is because she is afraid, which I had never thought of. When I take her into stores, I always carry her. He told me to put her down, that way if someone approaches her, she can back up if she wants. In my arms, there is no where for her to go, so she lashes out to keep them away. Makes sense, but I never thought of it that way. I tried it last night at Pet Supplies Plus, and when approached, she backed up, but did not growl or try to bite.
I told the person to stay there and let Lex approach HER. It seemed to work. I am still leery for while and we have a ways to go, but we are making fantastic strides from where we were a month or so ago!! Thanks for asking!!
