I rescued a cocker spaniel when she was 6 months old from a family who had to large dogs and they picked on this little puppy badly. My daughter fell in love with her and took her home to Colorado. Coco is now a very sweet dog at two years old but she will not let us put medication in her ears which she has very small ear canals and they get itchy so when we try to touch her ear at all she turns into a monster and if you don't get your arms up you will be bitten I have had a two inch gash in my arm and on the back of my hand. I love her dog and am babysitting her while my daughter heals from a shoulder injury I am trying so hard to get coco to let us treat her ears and be a better more docile dog can you help with any suggestions as to how to approach this situation any better.
She will also just attack you if you are petting her and touch her ears or lower stomach, she just goes balistic and it scares ua all to death and other time she lays across your lap and licks us and rolls over for a tummy rub then all of a sudden she's cujo in 2 seconds. WHat is going on with her? Please someone help.

Hi. I like your show. I have a question. How can i walk my dog without her pulling on the leash. I understand that i have to be calm and to keep her behind me not infront of me. when i do this though she is pulling and she makes me trip over her cause she is like leaning away from me and feet trip me cause they right were im about to step so when im trying to be calm i worry dont want to step on her. she also will sometimes pull harder when shes another i think i might not be calm enough
