Is Buta serious? Or is she just "talking smack"? Corgis are very vocal. What comes after the growl? Is she saying, "this is SO great I just couldn't stand it if you took it" or is she saying "try to take this and I'll BITE you"? It depends what you accept in your pack. As for me, true Alpha, I say talk all you want as long as you know that it IS mine. We did the de-sensitization where I pick it up and he knows I can, but he also knows if he's polite he'll get it back. So, he knows there is no point in growling about it.

Oh dear Oliver, raging hormone poisoning. I guessed as much. This too shall pass. But not before you try to assert your manly man-ness. As always firm and consistent limits will get him through. And if there are no plans for future little Olivers, it might be a good time to investigate the "brain surgery" (neutering). Good luck.
