Reply To: Dominance aggression with crate Resource guarding? Need plan for owners

[Allie Dellosa]

I would suggest not allowing dogs to be in a common area where anything of value is available ie: resting places, toys, food, crates etc. this will help prevent conflict and the conversation about those items or group activities. Your Dutchy is at the right age to be noted as potential conflict as well, so it makes sense that he may seem like the cause, we can’t get around Ethology. It would be so cool to get into the leadership group too, great resource!
