| Re: suprising agression
While we're on the topic, Shiva has never resource guarded against myself or my husband. In fact tonight she ripped a hole in one of her favorite dolls and was de-stuffing it. When I asked her for it so I can repair it, she willingly surrendered her toy and found a new one to play with. However she does resource guard high value items against our other dog. She will typically growl and if he doesn't back off she takes her toy/treat to her crate to be alone with it. There aren't fights, just some growling. Is this something I should be concerned with? I don't ever leave them alone together, they are crated if no one is in the house with them. Otherwise they get along fine, even play together. |
