| Re: Growling and lunging at my daughter Thank you for all your responses. I am new on the pc and have only just found you all. Anyway, my 15 year old daughter is not frightened and up to now whilst I am there watching the situation she has coped with making the dog realise she is not happy. Our dog still uses this behaviour and like one of you said it is as though she singles her out as a playmate, but doesn't seem to give up. Anyway, what I have now been doing is putting her in the kitchen until she has calmed down. When she is really bad we put her in the crate and dn't fuss her and i think she knows she has done wrong. But the problem we are getting is that now my daughter is getting upset that with every one else she is different. We really are trying and you are right it sounds like we are back off to training class. Thank you for all your help. Can I just add that I would never put my daughter in a situation where the dog could harm her. |
