Each dog has his/her own personalities. Some dogs can be more aggressive than others. For example, one of my dogs can be quite aggressive to certain family members who want to pick her up.Is aggression normal in puppies? Charlie’s probably almost 4 (if not already) months old and is a little meanie. If he’s playing, and I pick him up for any reason, he’ll growl and bite me until I either yell at him or put him down. He also does this when I try to tell him “NO” or “STOP”. He just gets mad. He’s also TERRIBLE on a leash. I’m going to try a harness instead of a collar to see if anything improves. Also, he’ll bite and growl when I go to latch his collar. He’s pretty much only not a total meanie when it’s his way :/
Brewster gets crazy with food too, he just loves it SO MUCH haha and will paw, chomp at me, launch, whatever LOL the key though is you just have to wait them out. He has to learn sometime so I wouldn’t just completely give up on that and not give him anything. Wait for good behavior even if it only lasts half a second lol he could be sitting or it might be that millisecond when he’s not launching at you mark that with “yes” or “good” or a clicker or whatever and reward. Or maybe he makes eye contact with you or stops biting. Reward the smallest things at first then you can up your goals. They do learn really fast usually. Don’t punish or anything or talk, just ignore that bad behavior. Let themWell he’s in a kennel during the day. I cant leave him totally out, otherwise the neighbors dogs will... let’s just say unalive him. The outside-ness is only temporary. I tried watching some training videos today. But as soon as he learned there was treats involved at all, he was done. All he wanted to do was pretty much tackle me until he got the treat for just acting bad. Of course, he didn’t get treats. I don’t want to reward bad behavior. I’m trying to figure out if his breed is the issue. 2 out of the 3 breeds in him are hunting dogs. He gets easily distracted by anything that moves. Not to mention he’s super hard to get back. He knows his name, but doesn’t get how to come to it or something.
It’s been a looong time since I’ve dealt with dogs / dog training, so as always, I could be the issue.
And also he’s still a baby. He shouldn’t be expected to know to come right away. All that needs to be taught. Brewster doesn’t come either yet but does follow me haha and will sometimes come but they’re babies. Put a long line on him and proof it. I wouldn’t use their name alone for recall though. It’s fine to say it and then the command but I would definitely have a command for it too like come or here. But yeah, it needs to be taught just like everything else and even dogs 1-3 years or older world sometimes don’t fully know it. Recall is one of those lifetime things. And being distracted is normal at his age too.Well he’s in a kennel during the day. I cant leave him totally out, otherwise the neighbors dogs will... let’s just say unalive him.
