commented answer why does my dog steal other dogs bones when he has his own, and then guards the bones he takes?

Thank you Laura, I was kinda thinking that and instinctually started the counter measures. My 3 year old 17 lb spaniel mix bullies a 9 month old 50b pharaoh hound. That baffles me, sounds like anxiety and fear for sure because the first time they met my dog froze with fear and then went into fight mode when the dog came closer. My dog is generally more on the anxious side through. He was a rescue and I have had him for about two months. Thank God I have figured which one to move away to diffuse a situation and they generally get along now. Thank you for your response.

4) Now We’re in Trouble, Part II: Dog B is socially inept – Dog A is chewing on (insert valuable resource). Dog B approaches. Dog A gives “the look.” Dog B is oblivious, and keeps blundering forward, until Dog A feels compelled to escalate the intensity of his message, to aggression if necessary, to get his point across.

He and the other will start fighting if the other dog comes close to the bone he stole.
