Hi guys,
I have a 5 year old pug, Daisy who is medium energy, really well socialised and very well trained. We recently got a french bulldog puppy, Mabel, she’s now 5 months old. We’re coming along with the training and she listened to most of what we tell her. The only problem is she started getting a bit nippy with her food. Not with us but with Daisy. She won’t let her eat unless we tell her to leave. We leave food down all the time and we would like to continue doing this. This morning when I gave them both a treat Mabel started shaking and staring at Daisy (they both had treats in their mouth) then Mabel dropped hers and just attacked Daisy. I didn’t get involved and did not react. Daisy put her in her place but Mabel got the treat and seemed to just keep her focus on her. How do I act? What should I do to stop her doing this? Daisy is not a massive food lover so she doesn’t teach her very well. She just accepts the behaviour most of the time.
