I have had my baby zoey for about 2 and a half months. She used to love to cuddle (and sometimes still does) and was the sweetest baby.

She is 4 months old and as far as I know has never been hit or has had any traumatic experiences.

However, she is turning into a mini CUJO. She snarles and viciously bites people when they try to pet her or pick her up when she is just sitting there.

Even when she is whining to be picked up, I go to pick her up and she growls at me.

I don't get it.

Yesterday she bit my roommate in the face when she leaned down to give her a kiss. My little 4-pound girl punctured my roommate's nose on both sides and blood was pouring out of the wound.

I just want to cry. I don't know what to do.

I have tried scolding her, I have tried giving her a treat when I go to pick her up ...

HELP.
