I have a 4 year old Akita. He is a rescue, been part of the family for 6 months. He was mistreated by his previous family (has old injuries). He is afraid of feet in certain circumstances, mainly when he is laying on the floor in a tight spot (spot is of his choosing, near where we are sitting) and has fear bitten once and has reacted aggressively on a few occasions (barred teeth, snapping but stopping at the foot) on a few occasions. Otherwise fitting in great, typical Akita, very loyal and protective. Other than time and patience, any suggestions to help with this?
