I have a 2 month old shepherd cross who we adopted recently. We have a long history with GSD and never experienced aggression issues before. Our puppy can get aggressive when taking away food or chew toys. She growls and snarls, but has not bitten-yet. I want to address this issue quickly to avoid future issues. What would you recommend.

We recently got a 4-month-old Belgian Malinois puppy about a week ago. I also have three other dogs, all Shih Tzus. The two females were very welcoming to the puppy, but the male is a different story — he tends to be territorial and dominant toward the other dogs. Every time the puppy comes out of her crate and gets near him, he growls. I want to prevent any future fighting between them. What can I do to help them get along?

When playing tuck with our 10 month old mal, he is many times laying down with the tuck toy, he is getting better with the out command, and typically drops it out off his mouth, but keeps his paw on it. Should I put him in the sit position before asking him to drop the tuck. When watching your videos I do not seeing your dogs keeping their paws on it after the out command. Maybe this is just the initial response when playing tuck. As soon as he releases the Tuck he get is back with a yes, unless I end the game. Also he still chews a lot on the handles. any suggestions.
