I have a Yorkie and hes 3 years old, and about 6 pounds very fit though. Every time someone leaves the house, doesn't matter who it is, he waits at the door and tries to bite the persons ankle. He has broken the skin on two people. While the people are in the house, he is very playful with them and us but when they leave he just attacks. I have noticed that my grandmother, the one that feeds him and gives him baths and everything, is the only one that he will not attack. He does not show any aggressive behavior in the house towards anyone, only when we leave. Is there anything that I can do to stop this problem without bringing him to obedience classes?
