Tana

Hello thanks so much. He is a maremma x kelpie 16 weeks old. he has mainly been aggressive by bearing teeth and launching at with us or kids he has bitten my husband it was a quick snap no broken skin or holding. I guess more a warning. He has an area to go sleep alone and have quiet time. He gets put outside for numerous reasons toilet, dinner, when kids are eating, when he needs timeout for acting out. It’s only been a handful of times but I wanted to do something right away. he growls when he is sleeping if someone sits near him we teach the kids not to touch dogs when sleeping. Eating etc. the kids are 7,5,3 they play with him with rope toys and fetch and walking around etc. thanks for the help

Hello our gorgeous pup has been very snappy and aggressive when someone tries to take something off him like a shoe or something he shouldn’t be chewing. Or if we want to put him outside and try to reach for his collar he will growl and try to bite. He has also growled even as you walk passed him when he is sleeping. We have had dogs our whole lives and never had this problem. We have 3 young kids and just want to treat this problem the right way. We have his full brother who shows no signs of this. They are both rescue pups. Thanks
