Red face food aggression

Hi Deb,
I doubt this would be something to do with your sis in law's dog as the problem would have arisen whilst the other dog was there. But I would hazard a guess and say it's probably more likely to be hormonal as the testosterone normally kicks in at about six months and he might be trying to assert himself a bit more. You are doing the right thing with the feeding...just make sure you feed in order of rank in your house ie...the humans, the cats and then the pup last and make sure the pup sees you all eat first. Hope all goes well.
