So I am sure most of you already know that Harvick has issues. He is a nervous wreck sometimes.
Simple background, Harvick was born March of last year, we have had him since he was just 7 weeks old. My brother has lived with us since we got Harvick. Harvick BARKS and GROWLS everytime my brother comes home and when he comes out of his room. I have tried having my brother give him treats and tell him to sit but he gets annoyed with it all which I can understand considering it hasn't changed AT ALL and my brother is 20, so he doesn't really care about anything
Also it doesn't just happen like once a day...its numorous times a day, anytime my brother appears. He even starts in when we call for my brother...he also continues to growl until he is gone out of site. He has never tried to snap at my brother and is even friendly with him when he actually comes and sits down in the living room with us, when we go in his room, or when he is dog sitting for us. Besides asking my brother to get treats out all the time what can I have him do? or what can I do?
Harvick also goes crazy when he hears a car door (I wouldn't say hes afraid, I would say hes being too overprotective of us and the house), hears people, hears a knock, hears the doorbell, etc. Right now we try and call him over and have him sit or shake or down or whatever, sometimes he comes and sits and lies down but still growls, also I can't give him treats all the time because he gets diarrhea and every dog wants one lol. :eyeroll:
