    Is it aggression or play??? *Sorry - long post*

    Bob play bites hands too Whenever I'm out playing with "Bob" and he gets really excited he will jump up and try to bite my hands. I immediately just stop what I'm doing and tell him "no". I've never known why he does it but he'll do it with anyone who gets him too excited. And if I'm wearing...

    Maddie's fence aggression is getting worse

    I need some advice with Maddie's fence aggression with my neighbors. This is the side of the house that they don't walk around very much but when they do, Maddie goes ballistic and tries to climb the 6 foot chain-linked fence to get at them. I have tried just about everything. I scold her...

    Ms. Ali chased a moose!!

    I know how bad this could have turned out, but, I'm chuckling to myself as I read this. "Bob" did the same thing when he was about a year old. We were taking a weekend road trip down to Cannon Beach, Oregon. Bob was sitting in the front street and we saw a herd of Elk, some adults and some...

    misinterpreting boxer play for aggression...I think

    Until recently, I've only had one dog, Bob, my boxer boy, who is now eight years old. he became aggressive when he was younger and has never really played with other dogs as it was difficult to get passed the initial greeting with them. With careful introductions I got my new girl Boxer...

    Where can an aggressive dog get a little exercise?

    Over the years, Bob, my eight year old Boxer, has gradually become so aggressive when strange dogs and people approach us that now we only go on walks in remote places or where there is great sight distance so we can avoid people and dogs coming toward us. He is okay one on one with other dogs...

    So glad to be here!

    My name is Kara. I am the owner of an eight year old male boxer, who I've had since he was born. I am single and he is the light of my life. He goes everywhere with me. I am happy with him in so many ways. He, however was the first dog I've owned, and not knowing anything about dogs, let...
