Yikes! Is this aggression? NO! But what is it and how can we tell?
This is a senior dog (9 yrs) and a young adult (1 yr). They're mine actually. Sierra, the young blond, decided to join Canyon in his furry bed. She then proceeded to bite his ears and face and generally harrass him for a few minutes. There was a lot of jaw wrestling and jumping on top of him, and after awhile Canyon had enough, but Sierra persisted. Canyon then slowly and gently put her in a "grizzly-bear facelock" (my term) with no pressure, no shaking, no intention to cause injury. The second pic is two seconds later.
