so as you all know....angus barks and growls when we approach people. this, in turn, makes them afraid and they dont pet him....which, of course, pisses him off and he gets louder. WELL...i have been ready to drop him off at the pound under the cover of night, but i haven't...and im glad, because i found the solution~
there has been a tennis ball in the apartment front yard across the street that my dogs ALWAYS try to get...i am paranoid and thinking someone poisoned it, so i never let them have it...well today they were both pulling me and i was like SCREW IT...and i let cody get it. angus stole it from cody and had it the rest of the time...and whenever we approached someone, angus would run up to them and lean against them SILENTLY to get a rub!
SEE...HE ISN'T MEAN, HE JUST THINKS ITS OKAY TO BARK!
BUT NOW...IF I KEEP A BALL IN HIS MOUTH ALL THE TIME, I THINK HE WILL SHUT UP AND GET PET MORE AND THEREFORE LIKED MORE! WOOHOOOOOOOOOO
