I just tried the "trade it" method with a piece of cheese and she obvs stopped chewing the bone and came to the cheese. That worked pretty well but she still is growling when you go near her when she has an item or is eating. I just dont wont her randomly snapping at people cause they go near her....
ps. after I got her spayed she was randomly growling my girlfriend (basically her co-owner) for no reason..but that was only right after we picked her up...any ideas??? |
She could have been in pain. That might have caused growling. As for growling when she has a high value item - it means she doesn't get them anymore if she's going to be growly with one. Rawhide is not good to give anyways, as it can break apart easily and cause a blockage - BUT, I would not be giving your girl these types of bones until you can curb this behavior.
Or, put her in her crate with a high value item and leave her alone. If she gets growly each and every time, she ONLY gets those treats in her crate.
