My bongo has develeped Food and Gaurd Aggression and is now bitting fearlessly . He’s been neutered a couple days back and it was a nightmare to even come close to him . My question is : Can I put a basket muzzle for atleast a couple of months until
I am sorry to hear about Bongo! A basket muzzle does allow for drinking but they cannot eat with it on. Try feeding him in a closed room to prevent anyone bothering him (and getting hurt). I would recommend a plastic basket muzzle instead of metal to prevent injury. Much more important, is to get Bongo on some anti-anxiety medication. This can be LIFE-CHANGING and I have so many great success stories. There are many great medications available with little side effects that are safe for daily use. My personal favorite is Trazadone but there are several great choices. Do yourself (and Bongo) a huge favor and talk to your vet about your options. Training is often needed with medication, but training alone will not work for these types of cases. Hope this helps and best of luck to you and Bongo!

My dog seems to get aggressive at times. How to train him to be calm? He does a lot of demand barking. Whenever I take him to pee, soon after peeing he comes and jumps over me(not in a friendly way). I don't know why? How should I train him? My paren
I'm so sorry you and Damon are dealing with this. I'm sure it's heartbreaking to consider having Damon leave your home. Unfortunately, without professional guidance, you may struggle to get him behaving more acceptably. Increased exercise can help. Walking (not running in a park or yard) for at least 30 minutes twice a day (some dogs need much more), doing basic training to give him mental stimulation, using puzzle toys to feed him meals, and scheduling 10 minutes of cuddling/grooming time a day can all help. You can also check out some general pet behavior books - Decoding Your Dog and anything from Sophia Yin are some of my favorites. Patricia McConnell also has a book about leash reactive dogs that could be helpful. Good luck!

Hello. Recently I recieved a note from my neighbours that my dog had been barking fro more than an hour. Casper always barks when the apartment is empty. The vet gave me organic "medicine" which should calm Casper when he is alone but it didn't. I
Barking can be a very difficult behavior to control as you know. It sounds like you have tried many options. There are collars and devices that can help control barking. The collar options include shock collars with give a static correction when the pet barks, vibrate when it detects barking or spray collars that squirt fluid when pets bark. There are also devices that you place in the home that will emit an ultrasonic sound that pets don’t like when it detects barking. I recommend to read the product reviews carefully. You don’t want a product that malfunctions or gives unneeded corrections. You could also work with a trainer who may be more successful. Best of luck! I hope this is helpful and please feel free to post any additional questions.

Is there a special food or supplement I could give Copper for anxiety? I cant even let her out on her leash without her barking at people, or take her anywhere cause she runs. I have tried walking her to wear her out, but she just barks at everyone a
Hi there. You could try a daily natural calming supplement such as Zylkene or Composure, if you want to. An Adaptil pheromone collar can also be helpful for mild anxiety issues. If these things don't help, you may want to consider seeing a veterinary behaviorist to discuss a more comprehensive treatment plan for her anxiety issues, which may include prescription medication if needed. You can search for one in your area here: www.dacvb.org

My almost 5 month old puts everything in her mouth when she is outside. I am still trying to train her to drop it and offer her a delicious treat without having me to tackle her mouth and get it out however sometimes she is way to fast for me to offe
Yes, a basket muzzle is a good idea but you should also consider working with a professional in-home dog trainer. They can probably help you train her to stop this behavior rather easily. I like BarkBusters and they have a trainer in your area. I’m pretty sure they do a free consult and the training is guaranteed for the life of the dog. No harm in calling them.
