Our friend Cath's cockerpoo will latch on to a person and sit by them and if anybody else goes near, start growling and snapping its teeth. Also does the same with sticks, holes in the ground, crisp packets...
Sadly its got to the point that people stop meeting up with Cath because they are tired of her dog's behaviour.

I've definitely heard about resource guarding in cockerpoos before. We hand fed our pup for a while to try and stop it becoming an issue later and she doesn't guard, instead she runs away with the thing. Tought her "trade" where she always gets a good treat in exchange but sometimes it's just not enough.
