I don't even know where to begin. I have been having such a hard time emotionally this last week. My big dawg Jack and Stryker have been not getting along. After a lot of talking we have decided it is best to re-home Jack. Stryker has been here for over 8 years and it's just not fair that he live in fear in his own home. We have had Jack for almost 2 years and he has been a great dog to me.
I began writing this a couple days ago and I haven't been consistent in posting which I am going to remedy! I need to be doing this on a daily basis, because it not only helps me but could also help anyone that could come across this and be going through something similar, or maybe not and they just find my rants amusing!
Anyhow, I have been so emotional all week I couldn't even mediate without crying almost the whole time (apparently it's what I needed). I've been pushing hard weights at the gym but not falling back into old patterns where I would over exercise to get out all my frustrations!
To begin again.... Jack and Stryker are staying in the same home. We have some issues to work on with them. Stryker needs more confidence and Jack needs to stop being so territorial in the living room and the bedroom. We need them both on neutral territory. I don't like that we have to separate them both during the day. I am home more so I know I can work with each or with the trainer to ease this.

I just want the above! Okay maybe not trying to get my food! But being next to each other, confident and happy!
Have you experienced bad dog behavior and what have you done?
