Hey Everyone, I have a one year old Cardigan who is perfect in every single way, except one MAJOR concern: he hates small children and babies. As soon as he is in close proximity, and especially if…Continue

Hi Everyone,I apologize if this has been discussed in the past, but I am new to the forum... I have a 7 month old Cardigan, and I am having some trouble while walking with him. First of all, he…Continue

Julia replied to Jillian McEwan's discussion My corgi hates children! Help!"Absolutely! NO hugging! NO lifting! At least they can't pull the corgi's tail."
Caitlin Randolph replied to Jillian McEwan's discussion My corgi hates children! Help!"hahaha right! I babysit 4 monsters and they were dog sitting a friends really mellow poodle. The 8 year old girl kept getting snapped at. Frankly, I'd snap at her to if she was roughly picking me up, chasing and pouncing on me, tugging on…"
Jillian McEwan replied to Jillian McEwan's discussion My corgi hates children! Help!"Hi Jean,
Slowly, but surely Russell is getting more comfortable with children. He rarely will bark at them now. I have found that increased exposure has been the solution for the most part. We also found it helpful to introduce Russell to a child…"
Jean replied to Jillian McEwan's discussion My corgi hates children! Help!"Hi
We're experiencing the same issue with our Sheamus. I was wondering if you have had much progress with Russell in addressing this issue? Overall I believe more exposure will help as per Jane's advice but any further advice would be…"
Jillian McEwan replied to Jennifer Oshima's discussion Shedding!!!"Shedding is a natural process in most dogs, in Corgi's case, they shed and re-grow their undercoat to adjust to the changing seasons. Unless your dog's shedding is caused by a medical condition (highly unlikely), a certain food,…"
Jillian McEwan replied to Jennifer Oshima's discussion Shedding!!!"I have a Cardigan, who sheds A LOT twice a year (early winter and summer). I have found that brushing with a rake works well, but unfortunately shampoo, vitamins, and fish oil will not affect your dogs shedding. You mentioned that you…"
Jane replied to Jillian McEwan's discussion My corgi hates children! Help!"I was just working on this today with Luke actually. He's very unsure of young kids and barks really loudly at them, which of course usually freaks out the kid and parents because he sounds very mean when really he's just afraid.
I…"
Bev Levy replied to Jillian McEwan's discussion My corgi hates children! Help!"I would invite people with kids over and have the children toss treats as they walk by at a good distance. Not too much the first couple times and then very gradually allow the child closer. Take your time. I find with our doberman that if I have…"
Jen, Yuki & Ellie replied to Jillian McEwan's discussion My corgi hates children! Help!"The only way to really fix it, as far as I know, would be to expose him to lots of children (gradually, of course) while providing lots of praise and rewarding for good behavior. You can start off with a friend or family member who can bring…"
Alison Prasavath replied to Jillian McEwan's discussion My corgi hates children! Help!"I haven't had to personally deal with anything like this, but are your friends willing to help you out by bringing over their kids and you rewarding Russell for his good behavior when he doesn't bark or lunge at the kids? Noodles is more…"
Jillian McEwan posted a discussionMy corgi hates children! Help!
Hey Everyone, I have a one year old Cardigan who is perfect in every single way, except one MAJOR concern: he hates small children and babies. As soon as he is in close proximity, and especially if the child runs or makes a noise of any kind, our Russell will bark aggressively and even lunge forward! I cannot say if he would actually harm the child because we have never given him the opportunity to get close enough, and of course parents get quite alarmed and want us to get as far away as…See More
