So as some of you may know, We have an almost 4 month old Fila male. We also have a 2 yr old female who is pretty self explanitory.. shes very independent, protective but not too, and she doesnt need extreme attention.
Our puppy tho, i have noticed, he will bark when someone comes inside our home or yard but will run around the corner or stay right where he is. My boyfriend has also noticed he will lean on my legs or stand beside/behind me if a stranger is approaching. My boyfriend is the "alpha dog" i guess, and i think the puppy thinks of me as mommy. I am worried bc he is wary of strangers but it seems like hed rather hide and bark (lol) than investigate like our female. I just dont want him to become fear aggressive. Hes very tolerant and loving once he feels comfortable. Im just not sure how to handle it.
Thanks !
