:?: Just got a new pup in the house and my pit that has never shown aggressive tenndencies actually growled and bit me on the hand causing great damage.
He is now the alpha male it seems with me and I cannot walk him or go near him when he growls at the puppy. My husband wants to put him down because he feels he can't be trusted anymore. I'm confused and I don't want to.
are there any steps I can take to make him happy and adjusted to the new member of our family?
It is a female so there are no alpha issues there.
He is 90 pounds and so powerful , they are amazing beautiful dogs. And I love him But...........
