| Re: Dog is starting to BITE
Look up these training places and talk to them about your issue. If your dog was not play biting at you and the leash, that's REALLY bad.
I am lucky to have a dog who is very submissive and non dominant. BUT were he EVER EVER to bite at me, or even growl at me or anyone else, I would do some bootcamp heeling, you can do a search on it here.
Mr. "I'm getting too big for my britches" needs to learn who is the boss.
This guy needs obedience school now, and you need to take back charge of all that's good.
No riding in the front seat, no couches, no laps, no coming to you for pets, if you decide to pet the dog call him to you and pet him.
I agree that making him wait for two minutes for dinner is a bit long. But he DOES need to wait for dinner, to go in and out of doors etc.
Good luck and keep us updated.
Oh and please stay out of dog parks, where you don't know the people and the dogs running at large. I try and make Playdates with others who have dogs that I know, and I supervise the play as well.
Always,
