Dreazy23:just train her and channel the aggression into other things, socialize her too and her head will level down. I started playing tug of war with Roscoe and also some rough play where I pad my hands and make him attack me like we're fighting till he gets rid of the excess energy and calms down. I also took him outside sometimes to sniff around and walk around the area with me, that also works in making the dog more focused. with time she'll calm down but the aggression will always be there, she'll just be less reckless. don't try to chain her or lock her up too much because you're just going to create a problem for yourself, just engage her in exercise and play and with time she'll calm down and start thinking properly. I still do the rough play till date (I even did it this morning), sometimes if he hasn't been walked for a while he starts misbehaving again so I wrestle with him or play tug of war and he'll relax later on. right now he's relaxing after the session we had this morning. I know you're wondering if you'll get bitten during the wrestling well when she's a puppy she can't control her bites so she'll definitely injure you hence the wrapping your hands with things. when she grows up and she can control her bites then you'll be less at risk. right now I can wrestle with Roscoe with short sleeves without pads and not get scratched even as he bites my hands and drags them because he can control the intensity of the bite |

Greenarrow01:well sorry to break the news to you but if you wanted a dog that'll act like how you're describing then a Caucasian shepherd isn't what you should have gotten they are very stubborn dogs no matter how well trained they are and I don't think 3weeks is enough to train an 8 month Caucasian to behave like a military dog. training a Caucasian shepherd is a full time job, and they still won't act like how you want except you do it frequently and for long. and I don't think walking him without leash in a crowded place is a good idea because people might get scared and act a certain way that can trigger him to attack, not every dog is stable enough for that exercise. you can still train him tho but he won't pick everything well till he's mature, some commands you want him to learn are too advanced for his age(he's just 8 months right?). I can give you a few tips but don't expect too much from a puppy. and I'm very sure the trainer's dog isn't a Caucasian or 8 months old, the breed and age of your dog has to be considered during training send me a message on Whatsapp p.s tarik looks nice, I've seen his parents he's growing well |
Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by Greenarrow01(m): 4:30pm On Dec 14, 2019 |
IamAnderson: You are right.. The trainers dog is 7years .. And also not a cauc. Thanks.. Maybe I am expecting too much |
Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by IamAnderson(m): 4:58pm On Dec 14, 2019 |
Greenarrow01:training him is still possible though you can text me on Whatsapp I'll see if I can give you some tips |
Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by Greenarrow01(m): 5:24pm On Dec 14, 2019 |
IamAnderson:I will text you sir.. Thank you |
Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by Dreazy23(m): 7:17pm On Dec 15, 2019 |
IamAnderson: Definitely a level headed dog, no one wants a psychopath for a dog |
Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by Dreazy23(m): 7:19pm On Dec 15, 2019 |
IamAnderson: Hopefully, I can see his territorial side kicking off so I'm not even really concerned about agression. |

So I have brought this up one time but still experiencing the same issue, Rex is Meat Agressive Once you've handed meat to him he doesn't know anyone again....i thought it's something that he will grow out of but he's far from that. Basically I can get bitten by Rex if I disturb his meat time but he's cool with food, I can put my hands in his mouth when he's eating his food and nothing but once it's meat it's totally different. Tips on how to curb this? cause it's Dangerous for the new pup who like disturbing him and also for me |

Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by IamAnderson(m): 8:08pm On Dec 19, 2019 |
Dreazy23:try to stop simply handing the meat to him hold the meat and let him sit or lay down before you give him, also when you give him let him eat it while you hold it, if he tries to take it away or growl at you then take it and walk away. with time he'll understand he has to be well mannered or no treats, he's just acting like that because he really loves meat and he's testing your boundaries. I did this and it worked, now if my dog wants the meat in my hand he'll sit and wait for me to hand it to him before he takes it slowly and runs away with it to eat it were no one will disturb him . it's like you're scared of Rex don't let him see that, his testing is just beginning, if you don't assume the alpha role he'll only come harder for you when he's older. sometimes when he sets boundaries, break them and you'll see he's just testing how much power you have over him. when my dog went through this faze I used to ignore his grolws and remove whatever I wanted to remove from his mouth no matter how much he growled or snarled at me. it got easier later on, right now he allows me touch any part of his body anyhow I want, I also have free access to his mouth which helps me a lot during grooming or brushing 2 Likes |

IamAnderson: It's actually working although he injured me by mistake now he just growls but when I collect it he just looks like please na But he still attacks bailey if she comes close when he's eating Meat |
Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by IamAnderson(m): 10:07am On Dec 21, 2019 |
Dreazy23:that's good just keep on doing it and he'll learn, don't stop until you have total control over his behavior around food, still continue again when he's grown and more mature I don't think you should let Bailey disturb him while he's eating tho, he might harm her. try to chain them apart during feeding time. oh and how's Bailey acting now? have you started training her to calm her down? |

IamAnderson:I'm alao getting a Caucasian i heard they eat alot |
Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by IamAnderson(m): 1:13pm On Dec 21, 2019 |
Spanishmilf:like mad one day I'll snap Roscoe's food and show you guys. |
Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by Dreazy23(m): 4:58pm On Dec 21, 2019 |
IamAnderson: Rex is just Meat Agressive not food Agressive Rex loves bailey, sometimes bailey even sleeps in his kennel but I think she has learnt to back off when Rex is eating his meat asides meat they're really cool with each other. Yes I have been trying to manage her Agressive nature and it's reducing but still the normal mouthing but she now knows how to control the bites a bit and she substitute with licks now |

Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by Dreazy23(m): 5:00pm On Dec 21, 2019 |
Spanishmilf: Yes and No for me, Rex is a very light eater right from day 1, Roxy was never full, bailey is just in the middle (normal) I think it varies |
Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by Dreazy23(m): 5:01pm On Dec 21, 2019 |
IamAnderson: How many times do you feed Roscoe? I still feed Rex thrice a day cause of the way he eats |
Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by Dreazy23(m): 5:05pm On Dec 21, 2019 |
N.b: I will post pictures of bailey as soon as I get a phone |
Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by IamAnderson(m): 6:05pm On Dec 21, 2019 |
Dreazy23:Roscoe eats once a day now |
Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by Dreazy23(m): 7:23pm On Dec 21, 2019 |
IamAnderson: That would be one big bowl |
Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by IamAnderson(m): 8:25pm On Dec 21, 2019 |
Dreazy23:yeah he eats in a basin lol |
Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by UniportAgbero: 12:12am On Dec 23, 2019 |
I followed your thread and I've just gotten a Caucasian, Zeus. He's just wonderful. He's 9 weeks old but doesn't eat any other food but Diamond puppy and canned pedigree beef. |
Re: Chronicle Of Rex And Roxy by Dreazy23(m): 8:38pm On Dec 23, 2019 |
UniportAgbero: Hi There, he's just used to it so and that's why he doesn't eat any other food(although expensive it's good for him). You can introduce the food you desire to make him use to by putting little quantity among the one he already eats and then increase the amount with time. You will notice change in his poo cause of the change of diet. Also for his age the dog food is necessary cause it contains nutrients to help him grow well. I wish you the best with your furry friend. 1 Like |
