If she were my dog and she growled at me, I'd have a leash in my pocket, snap it on her and start boot camp heeling her.

Gypsy is now learning to heel, she is catching on very quickly I will now use that from now on after her 10 minute training session on heeling we had some play time and she was more then ready to settle down for the night. From this moment on she is on strict training (not that strict but you know) like i have said we do the NILF and Im bumping up her training to 4- 5-10min sessions. I will do a few inside and some outside with distractions from kids and outdoor activity, I walked her all around my yard and she gets real ansy around the rabbit hutch but after 2 times around she didnt pay them any attention. So I hope Im doing right by her, or maybe I worry too much
