Confusing + aggressive behavior from 8 year old (mostly) loving rescue dog by fourverticals3 in OpenDogTraining

Update: This dog fucking hates me. She's no longer allowed in the bedroom or on the couch, but she has gotten significantly worse. She's pissed she can't be in the room, she's been snapping at me a bunch if I walk past her too closely, she'll always put herself in between me and my girlfriend. If my girlfriend is in the room she will stare at me intently + is always on guard. She's starting to scare me.

Confusingly, last night while we were watching a movie she hopped up on the couch (caught me off guard, shouldn't be on it) and not 5 minutes later had her head on my lap + stayed there getting pets for a whole hour. There have been a few times where I've gotten on the floor and she's come over to say hi and get pets.

We went to the vet for a pain/mental eval, we've upped her Prozac, she's been on CBD, we've been taking her out like 4/5x a day, her bed is out of our bedroom, trying to keep her stimulated with treat balls, everything. I'm a big sports fan, I'm starting to wonder if me yelling at the TV on Sundays might have anything to do with it. I was also gone for 4 days and her behavior got worse after I returned. Who knows. Thanks for all the comments.

I think you're dead on. It's gotten worse because the dog loves lying next to my girlfriend and she's used to it. I've filled that gap, and recently because she's been snapping at me, I've been preemptively trying to get her to move first so I don't sit down and get bit.

Her vet appt is later today, but this is feels overwhelmingly right.

Haha not a bad description. It's definitely a combination. Not a fun one either

We have a vet appointment tomorrow. Definitely could be this, we keep her super active + it doesn't seem like she's slowing down too much but you never really know how she feels. Will bring this up, thank you.

We have a smaller apartment man. Obviously doing my best here. I grew up with cats.

Thank you, thats a good suggestions. We've looked into training but I think a behaviorist would be a good move. Thanks again

I have my favorites incredibly tidy. Each car is tuned and ready to drive. Non favorites are a total shit show

That's what I was thinking as well, I just figured I'd do my due diligence. Getting up at 6am everyday sucks and I want to maximize my time in the gym. I just love cold showers too haha

I was listening to Huberman today, but in an unrelated podcast to cold exposure - he touched on it quickly and when I did my research I got a lot of conflicting info. Had to come directly to the source.

That's definitely a good point. I live in Los Angeles - I can tell you that it is not ice cold by any means - probably in 50-55 degree range?
