I posted this in Behavior, but no one replied. I really need some sugestions.
Zeke has been irratating Josie non stop. He's always nipping at her, biting her and wanting to play. Josie doesn't want too I think, sometimes anyway. She growls at him, I don't think its a friendly growl. But he doesn't stop, keeps at her. I'm REALLY worried about her. I'm scared she's going to attack someones dog or a person..she's always been extemely friendly, I duno why now she's being weird. She saw a big Collie on a walk, and I don't think he did anything to her, but she started snarling and growling at it..She's my baby, and if something happened to her, I couldn't live with myself. I'd rather run away with her and hide away then have her have to be PTS for biting someone..Can anyone help me? I'm starting to wonder if a 2nd dog was wrong for me to do..I just want Jo to be happy..Mind you, I wouldn't even think of giving Zeke up, I didn't mean it that way. When I go to play with Jo, he runs up and starts biting her legs and ears and stuff. I push him away and say Zeke! No! or Leave it, or stay..He sleeps in the kitchen at night, and she stays with me. She still gets a lot of time with just me or dad alone..She gets just as much attention as he does, I don't know why she'd be jealous!!! -sigh- I don't even think there's dog behavioralists here..................
I duno, maybe I'm looking at it wrong, I hope I am, any advice is appreasiated!!
