Hi again, I've posted once before and received some great advice which really helped. I'm hoping someone will be able to help me with a tricky situation emerging with Mac, our rescue, who's been with us two and a half weeks. He's settling in well, mostly but perhaps starting to challenge us a little as he gets more confident. The issue is this - when we start having sex he leaps up and barks like crazy at us. It's unnerving to say the least! Any pointers on how to proceed with this situation would be much appreciated. thanks joe

Thank you all so much for taking the time to reply. All of your advice is SO helpful and reassuring. We've moved his bed and modified our behaviour and as a result we're all a lot more relaxed and happy. I've also realised that we have a lot to learn. Thanks again, I can't adequately express my gratitude! So happy that those incidents have led us to this wonderful community and resource. joe

Hi - first time poster and new greyhound owner here. Some advice would be appreciated. Mac our 2 year old rescue has been with us for 4 days and is settling well generally. Last night I was woken by loud bone munching and crunching, and, half asleep, i stumbled out of bed and went to take the bone. not smart I know, i was sleepy and on auto pilot and used to do the same with our previous dog, so wasn't really thinking. Mac growled and went to bite me. I was shocked and scared and didn't really address the situation. Again foolish - I know. Later, i got up to go to the loo; Mac was sprawling out of his bed and I had to step over him. He snapped again. Please give me some advice on how move forward. I want us to trust and respect each other and could use some guidance. many thanks, joe
