My dog is a cokerspaniel poodlemix. Hes smallish and is very mean to my other dog who's even smaller then him. He wont let me cuddle or pet my other dog. Also when my other dog and I try to play he always butts in and yells at me and my other dog. I've tried telling him no but he still does it. help

Get them both neutered. That should help.

I have the same problem with my collie. What we do is we tell him to sit and wait his turn. Or what you can try to do is play with both dogs at the same time. If your dog tries to bite quickly grab the dogs snout, firmly hold your hand around it's snout (this won't hurt them) and firmly yell NO BITE. And BE NICE. I would maybe also suggest training. Sometimes the atmosphere around other dogs and being trained is good. That way the trainer can see the problem as well and help and give you more advice on what to do. Good luck

That's a normal thing with more than I dog. Remember that you are leader of your Pack and your dogs are setting the positions in your pack. The Cockapoo's I had were fairly mellow, but If your all the have , the bigger dog will put the smaller dog down a rung on the packs order. I have 3, 80 pound dogs and they will get redneck If they think ones getting more time with me than they are. You might have to crate him if he gets too rough, That sends him the message Mom ain't happy.

Jealousy - try giving him some attention too. Maybe instead of playing all together, you should have one-on-one time (equal time!) with each of them. Tell each one that this is their special time with you. You might start with the larger dog first since he is the one you are concerned about.

Put him in a cage while your playing with the other dog.

He sounds like a jealous dog!
I would try obedience training (even if he already had it) because it can be a good reminder to him that YOU'RE the boss. NOT him. It sounds like he needs to have that refreshed in his mind.

When he does this behavior he may need a time out. put him somewhere to be alone for awhile your other aniamls need attention too
