[quote=Anonymous]Dogs have "levels" of cues they give off when they feel stressed/threatened. It is probable that pup has been giving off these cues for a while and they've been ignored, so they've escalated to something that gets a response. If she is still giving them off though, it's beneficial to know how to read them. Lip licking Yawning Panting Ears pinned back against the head Sniffing "whale eye"--whites of the eyes showing Avoidance--head turned trying not to look at you Any of these signs and it's time to toss dog a treat and give her time to relax on her own. In the mean time, I would keep DD away from dog until you are comfortable reading dog's signals. Lots of dog incidents happen while the parents are watching, because they don't know what they're watching for. [/quote]
