    There has been a misunderstanding. Let me clarify: Helga is a 7-year-old dog and the pit bull is 6 months old. While they have not fought yet, the pit bull plays rough with Helga. While in my possession, the pit bull has been aggressive towards my dogs and possessive of me and attention. I am knowledgeable of LIMA guidelines, but I am unsure how to advise the owner on satisfying the dog’s need for attention or correcting his “people obsession.” (correcting following LIMA)
