Question
My husband and I took in a bulldog about three years ago.  According to our vet he is 6 approximatley years old now.  We also have a retired greyhound.  The two of them get along wonderful.  The bulldog is definatley my husbands dog, but I am the one who always feeds and cleans his face or gives him a bath.  I recently took in a cocker spaniel puppy 3 months ago.  She favors me over my husband.  Last month the bulldog has become VERY aggresive towards me, barks and even chases me when I try to put him outside, make him leave the kitchen while I am cooking, etc.  He is very strong and I am concerned that he will hurt me, or even bite me. Any suggestions?!?!?
