I am sorry you are having problems with Remmie. My 10 year old pom is food agressive and territorial. SHe has bit me a few times when I tried to get something from her and give her meds. I know most people wouldn't put up with that but I really could never train her right. SHe won't let me near her when she is being aggresive. But I know I could never give up on her but everyone has different circumstances and I hope you find a solution that works for you and Remmie.

No that does not show domanice.
You should have grabbed him by the scruff (like mommy's do) and put him on his back regardless of how much he fought you until you had him calm and submissive.
THAT IS WHY HE CONTINUED TO GROWL AT YOU AFTERWARDS!!! He had NOT submitted to you and him continuing to growl only show him he is more dominate. A SUBMISSIVE dog would have been licking you afterwards or apoligizing in some way.

When Chloe knows she's done something wrong, such as getting a little too nippy with my son (12) when playing. She starts rolling around on her back. She knows who's boss here.

Thats what Chachi did after my Husband put him on his back. He looked so quilty and My Husband kept him in that position untill he submitted. We have never had another problem with him with food agression

i got remmie from a lady about an hour from me. i went to see one dogs and came home with him. she had 4 puppies there. he was my first real yorkie, at least that is what his papers say. so i joined here, then learned about brokers and im pretty sure thats what the lady was the orginally had him. because the breeder lives in sc or nc

i am undecided about what to do with remmi i should have not posted when i was angry because i got feedback that i should have expected i do understand that most are trying to be helpful. but they also dont know that i have worked with remmie since i had him as a pup. i am very frustrated with is behavior. i would get him fixed if i had the chance right now. but i dont have extra cash right now we are recovering from christmas. yes i know what you are thinking wow why did she get another dog, when she cant fix her male. well first he was free, second all the vaccines were done, 3rd it was the exact dog my husband wanted and truefully i felt bad that my husband didnt have a dog of his own yet he bought me all the dogs i wanted. he told me i could keep remie and we would make it work with the county, his friend would get him licensed in the county under his name. but i didnrt feel comfortable with that so i deceided to find him a home and at my uncles house he would be a only dog so i thought that worked perfect and they were going to get him neurted. he was picked up thursday at 8pm and my uncled called at 10 this morning

If you have watched the dog whisperer enough you know that there have been many episodes where the people have more than one dog, but only one of the dogs has a behavior issue.

It happens, they have different personalities. Yorkies are very fiesty little guys.

so since you have already gotten the other dog, then it is a definite that you want to rehome him.

I would list him on here, and explain the issues he has. He will not necessarily behave the same for someone else. Rescue people rehabilitate dogs with behavior prohblems all the time.

JACKSON'S MOMMY 01-20-2007 03:49 PM
You may just need to start over with training. When you play with him you need to win and you need to dominate and make him practice submission. Put him on his back a lot and if he gets mad make him stay on his back until he is calm/submissive. The moment he even LOOKS like he is about to get a attitude about ANYTHING you need to put him on his back. IF that means stopping WHATEVER your doing to do it then do it. Don't spank him anymore just make him submit one way or another. Spanking HIM is not going to do any good but make him more aggressive as time goes by. But if you put him on his back and say no and hold him until he calms down you just may see a MIRACLE happen.

When I brought him in this house I didn't just throw him in the mix, I took him out and let the others smell him and then I made the others let him, then he walked around and seen that the others were not allowed to pee and poop, and he sense that I loved them but I was the alpha of the bunch and I wasn't going to take it from him, which is really hard with all those darn cute faces, but he knew from the start I was the pack leader but if I slip or don't correct them, He knew from the start, so I think thats why....My sister has a dog that does anything she wants, alittle chi, she is around 11years and I see my sister chasing her down the street yelling like an idiot...the dog rules her 100%...I told her to put her on a leash and she told me Cuddles wouldn't walk with it on, so she put it on and she wouldn't....so I had to keep her after that and I walked in put the leash on and walked the little princess around the block...They just know...:)

JeanieK 01-20-2007 03:56 PM
"They DO just know.

that is so true. That is why when they have bitten you once, and then you are even the slightest bit aprehensive, they know they have the upper hand.

It is all in the aura that you give off and the way you carry yourself. As Cesar puts it, "Like the cool kid in highschool"

As soon as Max my GSD walks through the door, Bear is laying on his back...he cracks me up but he wants Max to know he is submissive....I am talking about every time...:p

JeanieK 01-20-2007 04:04 PM
The first thing I would start with, and I'd do it right now. is to make him sit and wait before you feed him.

You will have him minding you in 10 minutes.

get his food ready, then tell him to sit. then say wait. go to set the food down. if he starts to stand up, straighten up and make him sit again and say wait. Continue to do this untill he waits for you to tell him Ok.

If you have set the dish on the floor and he stands up before you say OK then pick it up and start over.

He will have a whole ne respect for you before you know it. All of my dogs learned this in one lesson.

i never add another dog to our family until i have there spay & neuter money i personally could never own a unneutered dog we didnt neuter austin till he was 10 months (personal reasons)and he drove me nuts humping and not listening

if he is the exact dog your husband wanted why is that one of the reasons u want to rehome him u said u want to get a new dog for your husband cause he doesnt have one of his own ?
just asking

JACKSON'S MOMMY 01-20-2007 04:22 PM
Browniesmom- she already let her husband get the dog (it was free)... so she was rehoming Remmie and it didn't work so now she has 4 dogs in the house and the county only allows 3 so that is why she may rehome him if she can't get him to act right.

I mean this nicely - if you're resorting to hitting him - even not hard - it's time to find him a home.....he's only going to become fearful and that's never the way to train a dog.

I don't know why some get food agressive but years ago saw my husbands SWEET Cockers growl when they had their first real bone ...they just talked to each other acting all Clint Eastwood and all - but it WAS rib eye :)

If you're having so many issues he may need to be in a one dog home and good luck. I feel sorry for him and maybe he's overwhelmed with the new additions ?
