Cohan has been introduced to many a person as "my firstborn son". He was a gift from Brett for Valentine's Day several months before we got married. We had joint custody until our wedding day and, as a puppy, Cohan enjoyed dancing with me in the mornings and laying on Brett's computer desk at night. He's always been complimented for his laid back demeanor and friendly behavior. He struggled to adjust to the new addition to our family and I think he's done really well... up until last night.
I think Cohan's just been pushed to the edge lately with all the children and excitement at Caleb's birthday party and Caleb's new tendency to climb onto the sofa (previously just Cohan's territory). We've been teaching Caleb how to pet gently and be nice to the dog but last night he got just a little too close and Cohan snapped at him. Brett Fuh-REAKED out on Cohan and immediately started talking about giving him away. Caleb cried but got over it quickly and this morning it doesn't appear as bad as I feared it would but Caleb definitely has a pronounced cut on his forehead. : /
I started a firestorm of opinions on facebook when I asked for advice but what I gleaned from everyone's comments is that it's time to neuter Cohan.
Punishment for the first offense in the Quam household? Castration.
I did not realize he is not neutered. That should calm him down, hopefully.
