Okay so I'll try to put this as short as possible and I hope this is even the right place to post this.
My best friends dog is obsessed with stones and digging holes to the point of hurting himself and others around him.
If he's about to pick up a stone and you stop him by for example pulling on the leash he will start to extremely shake, bark and squeak and try with all his power to crawl back and reach that stone. It's like his whole world is that exact stone. Same with digging holes, if he's digging one, which he does a lot, and you try to to stop him by pulling him away he barks very loud and tries to bite the person getting near him.
He also has this thing in which when you sit on the sofa and he gets next to you, he'll just start biting your clothes and hair, he won't stop until you push him down so he can't move until he calms down. My friend says that's his type of playing.
When I enter their house he gets overly excited and will start barking and jumping at me which I don't like but all they do is tell me to dominate him, which I don't really feel comfy with since it's not my dog and it should be their responsibility to take care of him attacking guests like that.
He also aggressivly pulls on his leash.
They've been to puppy training a few years back and tried so much to change his behavior, nothing has really worked and he's pretty much absolutely out of control. My best friend doesn't know what else she could try and I thought that maybe someone on reddit has some advice. It would be greatly appreciated!
