When my Granddaughter enters the room shelby doesn't growl. Only when Granddaughter Lea goes near Shelby does she growl and shows her teeth. When Lea goes near Shelby goes the other directions. The first time she growled and showed her teeth my first reaction was to hit her on the bridge of her nose. I know this is not the way to change bad behavior but it was just a scared reaction. I do not belive Shelby would attack Lea but she may nip her like she sometimes does the cats. But heaven knows that could still do a lot of damage. I am going to make a vet appointment today thank you.
