rapidjenky 97 Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 my girl isnt to bad now, she is around the same age. i keep on top of the toilet training by making sure she goes out side at the times she needs to. ive started to learn now the times and how she acts when she needs to go. she still has accidents like when she is playing and dosent realize she needs to go and just dose it while she is running around but apart from that she is getting really good now for a baby. she is crate trained now, i find she wont go to the loo straight after she has eaten so i put her to bed for 20/30 mins and the pick her up and straight out side. alot of praise when she dose it right! if she has an accident and i catch her doing it i give her a little OI! and then a little no and the finger point ( that is more then enough for her to know im not happy). if she dose it without me catching her in the act i just clean it up and say nothing, she wouldent have a clue what i was on about if i told her off for it. i never ever use her name when im telling her no or catch her doing something wrong. if she is generally miss behaving i just use the little oi! or clap my hands if i want to stop her quick. chewing make sure she has lots of toys, if she chews something i dont want her to i just take it off her and play with something she is allowed to chew as i do so. but the best thing is to make sure theres nothing around for her to chew in the first place, well best i can anyway. as for biting, she isnt like that but it would be a stern NO! and a very light tap on the nose, never hit him or loose your temper! he will never forget it. i think with me having a couple of other dogs she plays and bites them rather then me so they have to cope with it untill she grows out of it lol. if they have a little nip back or frighten her she runs to me and i play the big protector and strengthen our bond lol. i do know when to stop her going to far or getting her self into to much bother in the first place though. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
austringer 0 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 spot on advice that rapid Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scalesntails 118 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Pretty much what rapid said. Short sharp sounds are good for discipline. Don't let your dog bite you if it does just make a sharp sound. If your dog continues to bite then walk away. Dogs generally don't bite the Alpha. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 My pup was a twat for biting me. He would hang off my arm, bite me if I was putting his collar on etc. I ignored him as advised and he has grown out of it now he is 5 month. Gaz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
