He is 2.5 and had almost a month. The first few weeks, he was fine w/my 2.5 yo and 3.5yo as was raised around lil kids. He let them carry him everywhere, and hold him in the mini van on short trips, etc. Recently, he is settled 'in' and is barking at my husband, and stepdaughter and boyfriend when they are in house. That isn't so much an issue as his recent snapping at my youngest. My 3.5yo knows not to 'mess' w/dogs, but she doesn't and we are used to having BIG dogs, which are more gentle. I'm trying to teach my youngest not to taunt, but sometimes she isn't and just wants to rest her cheek on his fur and he'll growl/snarl at her?? wtf??
How do i teach him that she is gonna take presidence over my lap, if need be?
she just wants to cuddle w/him like she did w/our late chi/rat terrier mix...that also slept under covers.
