Wow, I'm really relieved to hear that, Cali and Rhiannon!! I thought Gonzo was just being super mean and impatient. I do get the feeling that his aggression towards them is not as dominant as it is confused and scared. . . he rarely plays with 100+ pound dogs, but the second he meets most BC's/Aussies/Huskies he runs and wrestles with them. It's sooo confusing for me T_T! I still would prefer that he doesnt growl so much at any friendly dog, I'm really not used to this growly side of him. . he always used to just ignore dogs he didn't like too much. I'm continuing to try to get him used to big dogs again, he growled at a nieghbors choco Lab on a walk tonight (the dog ran out of their garage off-leash at us, so I dont exactly blame Gonzy). . then 5 minutes later he wrestled and got leash-tangled with his Husky friend Maya who is at least twice the size of him. I think he must have breed discrimination

LOL Rhiannon!! El and Gonzo must be related somehow. . I would definitely describe his attitude towards MOST Labs as "detest". I feel bad, because Labs are so sweet and lovey
