BEHAVIOR - OLDER DOGS

by Jane
(Boston)

I've got 2 JRs (have always had this breed). Anyhow one was diagnosed with incurable kidney disease a year ago and was expected to live a few weeks. Here's the thing..he has been VERY spoilt as a result and now he's fine a year later and showing no illness symptoms. His behavior has changed - as is to be expecetd - wants nothing to do with other dog - won't stay in the same room, and growling has begun. I want to rectify the spoiling I have done, but in a gentle way. Suggestions please. (both dogs are over 10 years old)
