| Update on Sassy As much as we love her there are days we want to call her Assy because she can make a total A$$ of us. Her name fits her to a 'T', as she is one Sassy little girl. She is spoiled rotten. We have spent over $400.00 just on toys and gadgets for her solely. That doesn't count her cost, her vet bills or the kennels and stuff. She is spoiled rotten. She has a toy box full of toys and treats coming out of the cabinets. She already knows to bring the toys back to us when we throw them or they will sit there and do nothing. She loves to play fetch. She loves rope toys, stuffed toys-which she loves to kill, as she has killed three already. She loves balls both rubber dog balls and doggy tennis balls. Taking pictures has proven to be a pain because she won't pose. She gets up and moves as soon as she see's the camera leading us to believe she is camera shy. Bad habits: She bites at us when playing and sometimes she will walk up to us and bite our ankles to get our attention. I am trying to find a NICE way to break this habbit and in the mean time she continues. Suggestions welcomed. |

| Get a metal can and fill it with pennies. If she bites you or goes to bite you bang the can. The noise will scare her off. You can also walk around with a water bottle and squirt her when she does this.

| We used the 'penny in a can' thing when Beau was doing something we didn't like i.e. peeing in the house, biting, begging, etc. and it worked WONDERS!! Just don't let them see that it is YOU shaking the can or they will become afraid of you! And don't let them see the can or else they will be on the hunt for it.

| thanks We started using the water bottle today. Will take the pennies in a can under advisement, if this doesn't work. |
