dog aggressive at bedtime.

[Karen]

Yes, have you done any obedience training with him? Definitely sounds like he has decided the bedroom – and the bed – is his, which is not a good thing!

Where is he when you try to move him and this happens? You didn't specify that he is already on the bed, but the prior posters did think that. I'm not sure on this, though.

Start using treats. HIGH VALUE, something he never gets any other time. Small bits of hot dog, boiled boneless skinless chicken breast, small bits of cheddar cheese.

And do take some obedience classes with him! Take group classes, and both you and husband need to attend. During the week both of you independently need to do all the homework and practices with the dog.

Dog aggression is a major dog problem for owners.Dog aggression stems from the dog's frustration and dominance. The dog's frustration comes from a lack of dog exercise, and the dog's dominance comes from a lack of calm-assertive leadership. Thank you for sharing!
