I have to correct the problem RIGHT THEN. hubby will sometimes say "what are you doing to her??" when I hold her on her back and make her submit...but she is NOT going to snap at me or my child..or anyone else for that matter (unless they are a true threat). period. she is not going to be the boss here...I refuse to allow it. so we work very hard to accomplish this and you know what...she loves me for it. I can tell. as soon as I let her up and we are finished with our little "session"...she gets on my lap and kisses me to death!!! she really is a great dog and it sounds to me like buddy is too. You will be so happy you put your foot down. |
Thanks for the support. I really believe he was showing his dominance over
me and that's just not going to work with me as well. I think you are right saying they seem to appriciate being corrected. I think he really was happy
this morning when I got down on the floor and played with him before
I let him go free. Got lots of puppy kisses.
Carol & Buddy
