weird behaviour towards toddlers
Hi. i'm new to this forum and think the topics are very informative. I have a rescue 11 month old retriever collie cross who is obediant, loving and great with my kids aged 6 and 9. But she has a problem with toddlers. i can understand as she has never been around them and they are at the same height level as she is. But she barks at them and this causes some distress. It's not aggressive but as she is at the age where she licks noses..which is something i'm discouraging big time.. i am worried that she will bark at a toddler and go for the nose. I know she need socialising more with the little ones with them giving her treats so she knows they are nothing to fear but could still do with some more advice please..
