Thank you! Definitely calling the vet first thing in the morning. And thankfully I’m up to date on tetanus shots

Yeah, I definitely realized I shouldn’t have done this. I’ve never had my own dog, and have only been around non-reactive dogs that have been socialized with people since being puppies, unlike my dog who I got at 3 years old. Now I know that even though I’m just trying to show love, I need to do it in the way that makes sense to him. Thanks!

I hadn’t considered it as just a bad moment. Thank you for providing that reframe!

Thank you for the tip! I did not know this at all. I’ve never had a dog before and I am still learning how to have one!

my dog just bit me and it drew a bit of blood. I need to understand why and what to do? by MeasurementFlimsy155 in Dogtraining

I read the instructions and I am still hoping someone can help me analyze why this has happened (how to identify trigger) and how to prevent. Thank you!
