I read recently on another forum of a dog nipping a small child who reached to pick up a toy nearby whilst he was in possession of food.

The owner mentioned that the young dog, not 12 mths old, was in PPD training and that while he previously had had other dogs as pets, they let him take food away from them and there were no issues.

I was in agreement with those who said isolate dog from kids whilst feeding or always and don't want to start a discussion on this. My question is "what on earth has this to do with the fact that the dog is in "PPD" training?" I had the feeling the poster thought food aggression and PPD go together and pet dogs don't do nasty things like this.

As I see it, even the weakest, saddest little canine out can be food aggressive - dog is dog - correct me if I'm wrong
