Remember that your pet is acting in a natural way, even if it doesn't seem like it.  Your pet is responding to a situation or threat in the only way it knows how.  Do not ever resort to violence, even a tap on the nose as this may only make the problem worse.  Always make sure you have contacted your veterinarian before contacting any behavior expert in order to rule out any medical issues that may be causing the problem
