The Gift of the Growl
Here is a wonderful article by Pat Miller that explains why we should never punish a dog for growling. The growl is a gift; it is information for us on what the dog is feeling. She also talks about what to do if your dog growls at something. This information is so important! If a dog is punished for growling, you will eventually have a dog that bites without any warning whatsoever, and that is much more dangerous than a growling dog.
