How to train a dog not to bite if someone takes its toy?

I am getting a dog this summer (Pomeranian) They are known for being possessive over toys and such as growling or nipping if someone took the toy. So does anyone know how to train the dog not to growl or bite? or how to teach it not to possess over things? i would have to give it a toy if it whined from its crate but wouldn't that make it become possessive? Thanks :]How to train a dog not to bite if someone takes its toy?
Oh, I learned this from Victoria Stilwell! Haha, anyways, you "trade". When you go to take the toy, offer a plastic top covered with peanut butter. The dog will release the toy and eye the peanut butter. The timing is right; pull the toy and give the treat. Do not do this fearfully, but with confidence, because dogs can sense what you feel. Also, to handle aggression, from day 1, make sure you're able to mess around with his food and take some. I did this with my dog and she's fine with sharing everything, from bones to food to toys. Messing with his food and showing that you are his master and what is his is yours will refrain his aggression.How to train a dog not to bite if someone takes its toy?
Easy..let the dog know that its YOUR toy, and you will LET him play with it.



He growls, correct and take the toy awayHow to train a dog not to bite if someone takes its toy?
I would try this:

If the dog dis likes water, then its easy:

Take the toy from him, if he growls, bites.

Spray him with water. You'll need to get a spray bottle.

He should learn, after about 10 times tops
i agree with bells. that is not his toy it is your toy. if you decide to let him play with it great but he needs to understand that. watch the dog whisperer
