The Hand That Feeds You: Update!

Today was very interesting.

It started out like our normal new routine - catch Huey, halter and tie him while I get dinner ready - and let him have diner while tied. This is because:
  1. Huey and Red are both on completely different diets right now
  2. Huey is the boss and will steal Red's food, which he thinks is better

After yesterdays incident - I was careful when approaching him, and very watchful of what he was doing.... He pinned his ears at me a few times, but a sharp "AH" with my voice, and he was back to Mr. Innocent.... No incident today whatsoever, and really, he was a much calmer Huey.

He's really a doll to handle any other time than food time - and I'm hoping that I can train some of that food aggression out of him - it looks like we've already had a breakthrough in therapy, haha.

I do however, think he learnt his lesson very quickly... The future looks bright for this young man!!
