  • And with other animals, too. I had a German shepherd who was chill about me being around his food but never had another dog around him while he was eating.

    At some point while he was still younger than 2 we had a family get together. Brother brought his dog over. Sweetest pit you’d ever meet.

    Time to feed the dogs. Had them separated, but she finished before my dog and she came sniffing around. He didn’t like that and nipped at her. She backed off, but the flags were raised.

    With my brothers reluctant permission, I had to give him some on the spot training. I had to sit there between the dogs while he ate, petting my brother’s dog and mine while slowly moving her closer so he had a chance to get used to it with someone he trusts guiding the whole thing along.

    In the end he was fine and never had anymore issues with dogs being around him, but I kept a watchful eye on him after that any time another dog was around.
