I will be very careful as to who I go to for help correcting it. I have no intention of scaring him, dominating him or punishing him to make him behave. I just want my lovable, easy-going dog and not to be afraid of him biting me. |
I certainly understand your concern. It would really be heartbreaking to see your pup change like that.
