Last month i adopted a 6 year old, 65 pound purebred EB. He was given up due to some aggressive behavior - uh....................yeh.. i get it now.
I love this jumbo boy and will keep him.
\
Please refer me to threads on this behavior.
****when either of us jump up off the couch or just start angrily yelling at one of the other dogs or whatever, he lunges and attacks the yeller. I'm experienced with dogs and am not terribly worried about being bitten so i accept this behavior in general but of course i want to change it.
As quick as this behavior starts, it ends just as quickly if you stop yelling. It's a trigger for him.
He's neutered and is loving other than this although he does show other signs of disrespect.
I'm going to take him to a trainer in May when this semester ends. any ideas in the meantime??
