I have a seven year old and i think some of you are nuts, i love my dog, he is lots of fun for this family of 4, however my 2 kids are the most important part of my life and i would never pick the dog over the kids, my 4 mo.old yorkie also tries to bite my son, not aggressively, but playful, however his teeth are sharp and he hurts, when he does it i immediately lay him down like Ceaser suggests and i hold him for about 20 seconds, when i let him up with an ok, he stops biting and starts playing differently. Sometimes he is so excited he won't stop the biting at which point he goes in his crate and doesn't play with anyone for 30 min. Your son is young, he just wants to have fun with his dog, how sad is it that you are not making it work. He is just a child. |

I'm not saying children don't need to respect dogs, i tell my kids that and i surpervise when they are playing with him and sometimes the aggression does not come from things they do, its from the dog and that needs to be corrected immediately. All i'm saying is don't always blame the kids, some dogs are very agressive. |
son hating yorkie I think I'd put both of them in time out at the same time. Your son might need some "quiet time" to be reminded that his behavior is not acceptable and maybe the little yorkie can use the same. By removing both of them from the scene and making both understand that this is the action that will be taken EVERY time...hopefully over time it will get better. I understand that you love both...but the next bite could land on your childs face and that could be really bad....for everyone involved.:thumbdown |
