Spoiled pitbull

Frogger · May 1st, 2008, 01:43 AM

He is one year old and this is first pet i kind of own, The problem is unlike other pitbulls he is very spoiled. He is very muscluar and strong dog but i spoiled him so much he always want to be near me, he always sleep in my bed, if i go outsite without him he will cry like a little baby til i come back.

Any hope to change this?

The first step is to kick him off the bed. Get him a doggy bed or a few blankets of his own.

You just have to shove him off.

Another thing is to "stare him down". Just look into his eyes until he averts your gaze. You can go ahead and blink. This just says that you are the pack leader.

i'd try that now, but it's like 1 am, and it's dark and i am drunk..

No law or rule says that this breed has to be mean and nasty.
Accept him as he is and enjoy your close friend to the fullest.
He will be your most loyal and trustworthy friend, and trust me, he will rise to the occation when needed... as in defending you or your family.
Dogs can sense this and duly step up to the plate and deliver when needed.

c'mon that dog is too cute for a pittbull, really lovely dog, get him a own little bed next to your bed and make him feel comfortable sleeping there, and dont stare him down he might feel offended one day, just make sure you are the boss with your voice and pose

Just love him and he will love you back. I share the bed every night with 2 pittbulls and 3 cats. Yes, it is a king size.

You could try punching it in the face a few times I guess.

aRyan · May 14th, 2008, 05:53 PM

I'd let him sleep on the bed. It's probably better that you don't have a vicious, distraught dog that doesn't want you to be near it.

Discordia · May 14th, 2008, 06:39 PM

Awww, he's still just a baby.

I'm glad you decided not to lop his ears and tail off like other owners do.

Unless you are making room for a female, or preparing too, I don't think he's spoiled on the bed part, but I do think he needs stop with the crying shit.

My dog had the same problem but we trained him to just go lay down in another room. Sort of like asking a child to take a time out to cool off if they have a tantrum.

Frogger, wait till you have a woman over and the dog decides to kick her off the bed. I had that happen with a rottweiler I used to have.
