Max has done that since he was a puppy. Nothing we did would change him. So we work around it. When he gets something (or I should say when he use to get things), we made him go ito a corner & told him to stay there facing the corner of the wall while he ate his treat. It worked great, he stopped chasing & snapping at us as we walked by. Hes ok when u touch his food, u tell him to back off & he will, we do that every once & a while because he eats too fast (when ppl had spent the night) & choakes, silly dog.

But right now we still can't take a treat away from him, with our hands. So I take some slices of chees & rip them up & toss one infrot of him & then lead him away from the treat & remove it. He never gets agressive after u have it in ur hands.

But I know Max would become aggressive with my sister, because she has beaten & teased him to the point where we can't trust him with any sort of food when shes around & he refuses to eat his food when shes at dads. Max tries hard to love her, but deep down inside he spites her.
Can't blame him, she almost killed him 4 yrs ago with weed.


Oh & rawhide almost killed Max, he chewed off a chunk & tried to swallow it & it got stuck & we pinned him down & I put my hand down his throat to get it out. U might want to try him on a diff type of chew. Max chews on bleached cow bones, hes good with those.
