3 month old husky pup aggressive?
My sister and her boyfriend bought a husky pup about a month ago. At the beginning, he would nip when the kids were hyper or there was alot of excitement. And we figured that that was normal puppy behaviour, something he would grow out of. Well, now his puppy "nips" have become alot more aggressive. He now lunges at the person, and when he bites, he holds on. We will be sitting on the couch and he will get up from his bone that he has been chewing on and try to bite us. Its as if he wants to play, but his biting gets pregressively harder and then he'll sort of jump at us and yelp and then runs away. He will be starting puppy school in a few weeks, but in the mean time, is he just being a puppy or is this cause for concern? And in what way can we correct this? We WILL NOT use any physical reprimands such as taping the nose or flicking his muzzle(I read that in anther question and I dont agree with it) All advice welcomed, Thanks in advance :)
My puppy tries to bite me aggressively?
i have a 3 month old german shepherd - australian cattle dog mix and she is super playful. i understand that as a puppy she will bite me because she is teething, but when i try to stop her from biting me, she tries to bite me aggressively (barking/growling/showing her teeth), she isn't an aggressive dog, but she does get aggressive when i try to stop her from biting me (she will try and bite me literally everywhere). Once again, I understand the biting (playfully), but i am afraid of the aggressive biting due to the fact that she is a german shepherd mix and will get really big. Does this mean that she will be aggressive when she grows older? Is there anyway i can stop this from occuring?
My four month-old puppy is really aggressive - help?!?
So, he's now almost four months old, and lately he's been really aggressive. Whenever I try to pet him or give him a little kiss on the head, he either jumps up to bite my nose, or my lips or bites my hand REALLY hard. I don't think he WANTS to bite me and my family, but he doesn't notice how hard he bites. If he catches one of my fingers, he bites down really hard on it and won't let go unless you smack him or shout at him or something. I've got over ten bite and scratch marks on my hands, some which where left bleeding after he let go. Also, how can I stop him from chewing objects around the house? He chews wires, shoes, even the little puppy pads we leave for him to do his bussiness on. He's getting more and more aggressive every day, and I want to stop it before he loses it completely. How can I teach him at home? I don't want any trainers as we don't have time for it and some are pretty expensive. Please help!
I have a 2-month-old Rottweiler puppy that bites and shows aggressive behavior towards family members. He is kind towards strangers. Does he not like us?
He is being a typical rottie pup, he’s trying to assert himself as the dominant pack member, testing boundaries and more importantly his human’s resolve in dealing with him.It’s crucial at this age you nip it in the bud, do not hand play, only use toys (by hand play I mean rough housing)Every time he displays this aggression you immediately pick him up and shut him out of the room for a few minutes. If he has a crate NEVER use it as a punishment or else you’ll have a pup that hates being in his crate, use a safe room that you can shut the door and leave him.Repeat these time outs and train with him often so he realises that you’re in control not him. Remember the bigger picture, it’s cute and cuddly now but he will turn into a rottie in excess of 50kgs with unadulterated amounts of power. Do not be lax on his training vocal control is essential, try restraining a fully grown rottie and you’ll know why.My advice implement time outs, more training and bring a dog trainer in. Make sure you avoid any hands on rough housing trainers, positive reinforcement only.This pup is your responsibility, how he turns out depends on the effort you put in NOW. Nurture supersedes nature. Good luck.
Should I have my aggressive dog put down?
The best thing you can do for yourself but ultimately her as well in the end is to put her down. You did a great thing by adopting her, but this has gone on way too long. unfortunately you have seen what can happen when people indiscriminately breed or allow their dog to breed at will. You've done all that you can and short of muzzling her 24/7 and keeping her isolated which is no way for a dog to live you are out of options. She's been loved and well cared for. Put her down before you are FORCED to do so.
