I have two dogs, a 17 month old Husky x Eurasier who, is as near perfect and smart of a dog as I would want. The other, is a 9 month old mini-shih-tzu, he was VERY sick when he was VERY young (rescued from a puppy mill, he nearly died) I've had him since about 5 weeks. Due to his trama and early illness he's "slow", we don't know in what way exactly, but multiple vets have all agreed he would be in the "special class". So he's HARD to train, he's not dominant. He has two modes, asleep and overly excited, like he has ADHD and just ate a pound of candy. He bites onto the big one's legs to stop him when they play chase. I've consulted vets, professional trainers, a behaviourist and a reg shih-tzu breeder. I correct him every time I see it (the big dog will just jump up on the couch to get away, won't correct it). My big dog has sores from this, and nothing I've done has worked. No one has had advice for me but to keep at it, its been at least 5 months now. Does anyone have ANY advice?
