Well i've always spoiled her rotten as we do, and she's always had my full attention more than any other dog around, she has always been good with other dogs, starnge dogs she was weary of (like let of a small growl but then started playing etc), but resently she's been growling and trying to attack any dog that sniff's her or comes over to us.
I think its jelousy of me giving other attention but it has to stop soon!
We were at agility and a dog came over and sniff and she growl and then lunged at it (she was on a lead by my feet), i'm against hitting/kicking/scoulding animals but it was the final straw and i gave her a light kick with my foot to distract her (dont jump at me it didnt hurt her one bit) which it did, i grabbed her cheek skin and yelled NO and ignored her till our turn!
What can i do to stop this jealousy/aggresion, i cant have a dog aggresive dog.
She's my angel but there are limits to what i will allow her to get away with and that is NOT one of them
Any advice to help please
Ky
