That is one way you can show him who is alpha, because thats what dogs do in the wild. Do this a few times a day and hopefully a few stern NO!'s and some time outs will correct this new behavior. Don't worry he's still the loveable kissable baby you have, he's just acting on his instincts as an animal. As long as you don't put up with it, he will not continue it. |
This is what I was thinking also then I saw you posted it
