My dog growled at a kid. how do i break her of this?
First let me give you some info on my puppy. She is seven months old and weighs about 25 pounds. She rarely ever barks (like twice a month if that), and when she was five months old she barked at her first person ever. But she didn't growl or anything like. She just barked like three times and quit. Well a couple of days ago I was taking her outside for our daily bathroom break and routine walk when a kid got off of the school bus. He asked me if he could pet her, and I said sure. She has NEVER been unfriendly towards anyone. We have friends over all the time, and my ten month old niece is around her. Well she started flipping out. Barking, growling, and in general just trying to get away. She actually got off of her leash and luckily she ran back inside ( I always keep the door open..just in case). Why would she do this when she's never done it before? Can I expect this again, or is it just an isolated incident? What can I do to prevent this from happening again? Thanks in advance to all who answer. Any help is much appreciated.
