He is a looker for sure. I see a Warrior-Poet who needs some help understanding his place in the house with his new Alphas while you are away. Have them learn his game, master him, and he'll be the better Chow for it. And when they do, who knows, they might not wan't to give him up when you return....

Just so everyone can put a face on Yogi. http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x237/jmass03/IMG_56841.jpg http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x237/jmass03/IMG_5875.jpg http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x237/jmass03/IMG_5899.jpg http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x237/jmass03/IMG_5927.jpg http://i187.ph...

You subject line starts with "Yogi needs your help"...when in fact Yogi needs YOUR help. He is yours and you are the Alpha male in the house. It doesn't sound like Yogi really knows that. And once they get a feel that the role is up for grabs you will have what you have right now. This is...

I think TyChowgirl has a good point about the room vs a crate, and the fact that the room is Yogi's territory, which he seems to be defending. My two are defensive of the house, and when I moved here, Ursa was especially defensive. At night, she would challenge me if I did not speak up so that she ...

Cam Atis you are correct in most everything. Just for correction he has not BIT my dad as of yet. However, he has shown aggression. We are regretful that we didn't catch the signs of an aggressive dog from an early age. When he started showing signs of this, we tried correcting it and made headway o...

wowza! gosh, im so sorry for you :( You must be seriously caught between a rock and a hard place... I think in order to treat the problem you have to start at baby steps again. If your dog is biting out of fear, it must mean at some point, some where... something happened to cause your dog to fear ...

I will only interject my experience of being the "interloper" and I have the scars to prove it. Kimba (pictured below) was with Joe (my husband) for seven years before I came into the picture. She was HIGHLY protective of Joe, even charged and almost bit the Pastor when he came over to Jo...

i had a bit of trouble following the time line, but that is probably me. But from what i am reading this seems to be a bit of an owner protection/separation issue. One of the earlier issues seems to be that someone stepped between you and the dog, not an acceptable response by Yogi, but understanda...

Has he been examined for neurological problems? Some dogs, chows included who aren't bred well have neurological problems that cause them to over react to almost all stimuli, they often have mini psychotic breaks where they attack for almost no reason. They may suddenly not even know who a person i...
