Curtis's Behaviour

Curtis is my 5 month old staffie. All of a sudden he has started 2 become very knarky. An started snapping at us. Wondering weather it could be because of his teeth falling out??? xxxx

I briefly read through your other posts about your staffie pup and from what you now say it sounds as if your pup is getting a bit assertive and bossy with you. It may be that his gums are a bit sore, but soon he will have adult teeth which can cause a lot of damage and he could become a danger. You cannot allow him to snap as this could get worse as his matures. Staffies are noted for their powerful jaws and they are a very strong minded breed. I think you need to see someone who has experience with staffies. Do you know if there is a breed club near you - if so I would join. Otherwise, join a training club. It may also be worth a quick visit to the vet, just to be sure there is nothing physically wrong with him which may be causing him pain. Good luck.

Thanks. Hes only like this with me. He has a very good relaionship with my partner. Curtis suffers from excema In his ears and in his armpits with has had treatment. Hes due 2 go back 4 more medication and a cheack up so i will see the vet while im there xx
