So sorry for what you are going through, reading this, but I think your determination to keep hold of her and get the problem sorted is wonderful. Good luck and hope it all goes well for you.
Well, she has mine and Mark's heart already. She is adorable and so loving and sweet 99% of the time. I don't think she enjoys being aggressive at all! I've always been of the view that the owners need to change their behaviour if they expect their dog to change its. Last night, we had no aggression at all. It was my first day back at work after the holidays, so Amber had about a couple of short spells on her own. Perhaps that helped her? She has not displayed any resource guarding traits at all since Sunday and Mark and I are working on being firm with our voice and generous with our love, as well as sticking to a regular routine and ignoring where appropriate.
Thanks again everyone. If I knew how to give a hug on here, I'd give you all a great big group hug!
HUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGSSSSSSSSSSS
