 Re: Horrible Experience! Is this "adolescent dog testing boundaries"?
This is a very dominant breed, you have to be more dominant than him. I feel that it is time to see a behaviorist (that is comfortable with this breed). Forget the trainers at this point. In my experiences trainers are better a preventing problems like this not fixing them. The two year mark is when these guys begin to come into their own. Often dogs that have been great suddenly become dog aggressive and start pushing their dominance. Also neuter him! It is not responsible to breed an aggressive dog, and if you arn't going to breed him there is no reason for him not to be neutered. An intact dog is at risk for multiple diseases. |
