This says basically just the opposite of what I said, lol. I will stand by my
assessment that if this dog is intended as an SD for son, then it likely too
late for that bond to form unless mom flat out leaves the scene altogether.
Even if dog comes to see son as his primary care taker and becomes bonded to
son, dog is still going to feel some loyalty to mom. That will never work in an
SD situation.

I'm guessing here that your doing all the care and feeding of this dog
right? You need to back off and make your son do all the complete care. Your
dog is seeing you as it's mother and Alfa dog. Getting another one would
only add to the problem until you get it straightened out and turn ALL care
over to your son. You need to completely ignore the dog when it comes to you
for it's care and feeding until it realizes that your son is it's care
taker. It will be hard to do at first because this dog is already bonded to
you but be consistent and gradually it will turn itself around. DO NOT I
repeat DO NOT get another dog at this time. Good luck and let us know how
it's going.
