A trip outside every waking hour with the potty training. And reward with a tiny treat when the dog does it's business.
Ignore the accidents inside. Don't say anything at all to the dog. Just clean it up. It'll get there in the end. Persevere. |

Does anyone have any tips on stopping a puppy biting please?
I didn't want to start another thread as it is about the same puppy who is being very naughty! She seems to be learning things really quick and has had two nights with no indoor accidents. However, the biting seems to be here to saty. She bites feet, legs arms and hands and it hurts! Her little teeth are so sharp that they have pierced my skin twice and no matter how much i tell her no she seems to find it a game. I really want to get her out of this before she starts going for walks (she has her 2nd jabs on 28th Jan so a week after that) as I don't want her biting strangers. It doesn't see aggressive it's more in play when she gets excited but I need to stop it before it does get aggressive.. Thanks in advance for any advice. |

Wow - absolutely adorable pictures on Ponglie!! And yes I'd suggest just being with her for a few days constantly until she realizes that you'll always be there and she can depend on you, then she'll stop crying basically - think of her as a baby right now. And ditto to the above post about taking her outside and then tooooons of praise when she goes potty. Hope that helps! You have a friend for life now

Our puppy used to bite and snap, jump up and try to play. I was strict about telling him to get down and tapping his nose.
He grew out of chewing a lot of things but we make sure he's got a squeaky toy to play with, replaced as they get destroyed. He still steals a carrot or such from the vegetable rack on a regular basis to gnaw. Call it his character and remember he's going to be your loyal protector for many years to come. This will be an intruders leg one day.

Awww bless! I have an 11 month old German Shepherd, not such a cute puppy anymore lol! But yes, socialising is important, get them socialising with people and other dogs as soon as you can or else they get territorial of you. Mine's the soppiest GSD youll ever know though, her favourite spot is right up by the radiator in the dining room.
And congratulations on getting one of the bestest dogs ever! I have 2 GSD's and they are fantastic, loyal, soppy and brilliant fun....as long as they know who is boss! |

GS puppies are like giant pom-poms, so cute
Get her loads of stuff to chew, and say no firmly whenever she bites you.

She's calming down a little on nipping people it's just biting clothes that is still a problem. She's calmed so much though especially since going to puppy training/socialistion classes. She's sleeping right through the night and seems to be picking up the toileting really quickly.
She's so beautiful and sweet and loves to have her belly rubbed

Cute puppy pics!
I have an elderly bull terrier and am thinking of getting another from rescue to keep her company. Been 10 years since we last had a pup but I recall they settle within a week or two, usually. Our staffie was smaller than the cat at 8 weeks old and adopted her as his new mum. Which got funny when he got to be a big, powerful, musclebound 50lb dog and the cat was the size of his head... As she still bossed him around, thwacked him, ate from his food bowl before he was allowed to etc - she was an outrageously bossy 'mum' to her doggy 'kitten' - but he worshipped her. ![]() My Rottie was the same size as my cats when we got her. They soon put her in her place when she enthusiastically went to their food and water bowls and their bed and she hasn't forgotten. She's not the biggest Rottie in the world but she's about six times the size of the cats now and they still boss her about
