    food aggresive

    Well Molli already is really food aggresive. Now the other day Sammy was eating his food and Molli walked by and sammy growled really loud. Is this the start of food aggresion??

    Unhappy Sorry but it is.

    yes. All my dogs have it. Not bad thoughh. What you should try to do is 1) keep them in seperat rooms while they eat or 2) just keep them further apart. With our dogs we HAVE to keep them at least 2 ft apart. One time Tyler attacked Fanny because she walked up behind him and just barly touched his tail. She had to get 15 stiches. PLZ DON'T WORRY! That wasn't to scare you. If you just work with him and it should get better. For Tyler it was too late. He had it the day we got him. Good Luck!

    Thanks. Molli has food aggresion pretty bad, too. Both sammy and molli got in a huge fight today because molli was in her kennel eating and sammy walked over and sniffed it and she bit him threw the bars and they got in a huge fight. I had to break them up and sammy bit me, i don't think it was on purpose, though.

    I just get kinda scared when I try and teach him not to do it because I have gotten bites from molli. I don't know what to do.

    Both should be seperated at feeding time. Mandy and Luka are food aggressive. However, both do not care if Nova is around them at feeding time because Nova (being the smart girl that she is) would never touch their food while they're eating. However, all of my dogs are seperated at feeding time. If Molli still bites through the bars, keep Sammy away until she is done.

    Food aggression, unfortunately, is very common. But also, it's very understandable.

    Ok thanks! I will just keep sammy in his kennel until molli is full. (she never finishes her meal at once, still trying to train her to do that)

    How are you training Molli to finish her meals at once?

    Both Sammy and Molli are very cute. Sounds like you have your hands full with both. Have you signed up or taken Sammy to any puppy classes?

    Thanks kittycats_delight for the great signature.
