Me and my family(sister and Dad) all decided we had the time and resorces to get another dog in May, a few(months)weeks of searching later we brought home a 6week old bundle of joy named Flinx, a cute little mix of dobe lab and rottie.
Heres the problem...Our first dog, a Stafforshire Bull Terrier, won't spend time with us anymore. She excepted the puppy with open paws, cuddled with it when he started to sleep with me and her,played with him and never showed any aggression, and even tolerated his incesant need to bug her(she was food aggressive with him but that is being worked on although any suggestions about that would be apprciated) we where prepared for just about any problem that could come up and ready to deal with it and pull threw...but this was NOT what we where expecting.
She ignores us. Plain and simple; we have to command her into the livingroom and close her bedroom door just to keep her with us, I can understand this kind of behavior temporarily but this has gone on for months. I would like some insight as to whats wronge with her, All of us are out of ideas and I'm getting pretty darn concerned, shes my little girl and I really want her to be happy.
Help would be much appriciated.
