    Maggie : bites people like a police dog when they run, not other people, just me and my sister, but she doesnt if you tell her no

    Autumn : None

    Boo boo : where do you start?? He hates other dogs and fights with them, bites little kids so when youngsters come over we have to tie him up, bites peope if you try to keep him away from someone with food, he is on the "dangerous dogs" list for our town at the police station, he bite off my friends cheak, mite me in the lip, and he tore my sisters head open when she was trying to get a leash on him Not to cool, but we love him.

    Charlie: runs off if he's outside off a leash and won't come back because he's afraid of his own shadow. And he chews on things sometimes he shouldn't be (like, the couch..). OH yeah VERY FEW times he's actually jumped up on the kitchen table and ATE the food off of my plate when I left the room for like five minutes!!

    Jamie: gets into the trash and dirty laundry and gets dirty socks and underwear out She also sneaks into the bathroom trashcan and shreds tissues!

    Ahh yes I forgot that both the dogs like to raid the trashcans, especially the one in the bathroom for the center of the toilet paper rolls ... they like to chew those up. And Nova likes to chew up socks and basically anything, but she's a puppy so it's not really a behavioral problem.

    Simba: Sometimes doesn't like other people/dogs. He has gotten 99.9% better over the years but there's still that once in a blue moon time.

    Nala: I can't think of anything that's bad enough to list. She's a good girl a majority of the time! She is scared of a lot of things.


    Kiara: She barks at people when she first meets them. Once she warms up to them she's fine.

    Nebo likes most dogs but he doesn't get along with all of them. He can ignore small dogs growling and trying to be dominant toward him (like Reggie) but not bigger dogs, especially males...and *especially* unneutered males. He thinks he's a tough guy. He's not the best on a leash, he does know how to heal but he'll only do it if I walk him alone...if there's other dogs around he pulls. He's afraid of strangers sometimes. If he's in a new place he's afraid of most people and acts really skittish. If he's in a familiar place he's fine with most people except some men frighten him. He's usually ok with people at home and friendly but sometimes still weird around strange men even at home. He knows the come command but has selective hearing plus he's a husky which are known to run off so I'm sure he would run away off leash, I will not even risk it with him ever.

    Sydney's main problem is barking. She is a schnauzer afterall.......she will get herself all riled up barking at things outside and she simply will not stop even when told to, I have to go and get her inside. She barks and runs at the door. She's the number 1 garbage hound. She's always trying to sneak in and get stuff out, especially toilet paper...which she spreads throughout the house.

    Reggie is a grumpy old dog. He growls at (and sometimes bites at) Nebo if Nebo even walks by him. He tries to guard the basement from Nebo too lol. Luckily Nebo just ignores him 99% of the time. He also like to bark and run at the door and sometimes things outside.

    Ok I made them all sound bad but they really are good dogs I promise! No they are not obedience champions but they are well behaved most of the time!

    Happy is fear aggresive with starnge dogs, and is bent on killing on pointers and schnauzers, she seriously goes crazy when she see's one, her eyes glaze over and tries to shred them, but she is ONLY like that with those 2 breeds

    Misty is very dominant of other dogs, she is very submissive with people, but she really likes to use her power as top dog, and has to be pryed away if we want the other dogs to be able to do anything. she does use this power for good too though, if dogs are fighting she walks in between them and they will stop, the dogs could have never met her before and they will listen to her.

    Ripley likes people too much, he runs away just to meet new people, I was pretty suprised the first time I found out that Ripley had been pracing into strangers houses to say hi lol

    Blair bites. he HATES starngers in his house, and has no problem at all with attacking someone who behaves as if this house belongs to them(aka anyone but me, my mom or my brother walking in my house) however I am not sure I would call this a bahaviour PROBLEM, as this breed is required to be like this, it was to prevent theives from stealing them or their flock, cant steal what ya cant catch lol

    Perky barks, she barks at EVERYTHING and refuses to shut up.

    Visa is shy with strangers, chases cats, whines when she sees me but can't be near me, scratches the door is she is left out too long, she goes into drive when she sees another dog running offleash when she is onleash, she grabs your clothing or jumps on you when she is confused, frustrated, or anxious.
    I've been BOO'd!

    Finn can be agressive with male dogs, usually unneutered ones. Not sure, yet, if it's fear aggression or dominance aggression. I hope to get him into some sort of advanced training to find out if there's anything that we can do about that. And, he will still get ahold of things and chew them up if I leave them out. The other night, he almost chewed up two glue sticks. I got to him before he broke the sticks open, though...

    Katie and Tori are completely uncontrollable when we have company! It is embarrassing. I know it is all my fault but I can't seem to correct the problem. Both of them get so excited. They jump all over the guests and when a guest actually manages to sit down they are both right there in that person's face wiggling and waggling and breathing all over them and Katie even paws at their feet. I either have to put them outside or put them in their crates. It probably takes an hour for them to calm down and usually longer than that.

    They also both dig! Big time diggers! Tori is the main one and Katie seems to follow along now. I hate it!! My backyard is a disaster. I am constantly wiping thier feet and Tori hates that. The yard is disgusting and they get all muddy!

    Thats about it for my girls. Those are the two things that drive me crazy and embarrass me...lol.

    Katie is dog aggressive but I don't know if that is a behavioral problem or just her akita nature

    Tango is fear aggresive with strange dogs, and goes absolutely crazy when she see's a brindle dog for some reason. She is also very shy around new people and barks out of fear.

    Keeva is very dominant and protective, she can get aggressive when she's jealous of something.

    Winston is weary of strangers, especially men but other than that he's pretty good.

    Tia is scared of the world, she only trusts family and close friends.
