[quote=Anonymous]I agree with 17:00. My dog has snapped at me in two situations: when I try to pick him up while he's sleeping and if I try to take away a high-value treat (like a bully stick). I used to think this meant he "didn't respect my authority," and we'd get in these power struggles over it. But then I realized we could just avoid these situations -- which was confirmed by an animal behaviorist I heard a lecture by. So I nudge him awake first, and he never gets bully sticks. Voila -- no problems since.[/quote]
