I would also keep her away when you son is playing for the moment and teach your son to do basic training with her so she sees him as being in control and that he is a able to give rewards for good behaviour.  A dog trainer will give you some simple excerises to do and better advice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
