I believe that I have ruined my dog. We have done basic training and the first few classes of agility training, and she was super well behaved until lately. Now she barks, especially if she thinks we are eating something and not sharing. Our mealtimes are becoming stressful due to her barking and sitting under our feet. I told the husband to quit giving in to her, but he will always slip her a little something.

Also, I am not a fan of her licking in the face. Anyone. And she will jump up on my kids, lick them in the face, and also jump up on my Mom too (and Mom is not a huge 'Dog Person' as is).

She also chases me through the house and nips at my feet and my pants.

I love her so much, but I would love to find a way to handle these behaviors. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Overall, she is a good dog and not a terror, but she gets her way 99% of the time, and if I am doing something wrong, I want to correct it before it gets out of hand.
