Resource guarding is something that is more common than people realize. Many people deal with a dog who will guard food, treats, toys, bones, remote controls, you name it. Quite often, resource guarding develops in puppyhood. The two main ways it begins are: 1) The human does nothing to teach the dog she doesn’t have to guard things. 2) The human does things like petting, getting close, sticking hand in bowl, trying to take away, etc. Both of those ways have a higher potential of developing reso

Dogs that resource guard, showing aggressive behaviors to keep humans (or other dogs) away from particular items is at an all time high. Sticking your hand in your dogs food dish won’t help you, but it will help me get more business because it will make your dogs guarding worse. Controlling space around resources is vital. Can I move my dogs away from me, the couch, bones, toys, food, etc. but NOT physically restrain them, which will also make it worse. When working with dogs that show this beha

Resource guarding is often associated with dogs ferociously growling, baring their teeth or biting, we think of it as something very obvious and rather nasty. However, guarding behaviours don’t usually start out with big scary signals, they start with the subtle ones which we tend to ignore until the dog snaps.

Resource guarding ❌ Dogs can resource guard humans. This behavior occurs when a dog views a person as a valuable resource and becomes protective, often showing behaviors like growling, snapping, or blocking access to “their” person. This is usually rooted in insecurity and possessiveness. It is important to not let behaviors like this manifest as they can lead to big issues down the line. #dogtraining #dogtrainingtips #puppytraining #rescuedog #doglover | Cherry Hoggs

Classic case of resource guarding. That’s what Enzo is here for along with a host of other issues. And since he’s been here we’ve been asked a lot by breed specific groups “is it genetic? Does the breeder know their lines are doing this?” Etc etc the list goes on. Here’s the funny thing about resource guarding- it’s not necessarily as much genetic as it is LEARNED (and usually accidentally reinforced) Most dogs, regardless of breed, will absolutely resource guard food from eachother.
