They seem fine together but then one time when my mom came over- as she was coming in the apartment- the cat attacked the puppy. Then 1 week later, they were sitting at the glass door peacefully, then the cat attacked. Anyone have any experience like this or know a good cat behaviorist?

A cat behaviorist? Please tell me this is a joke

Now the dog finally got the confidence to growl back, but they’ve never hurt each other and I don’t believe they will. I think it’s mostly about trying to assert dominance. If I think it’s too much I just get between them and shoo the cat away.
