I read the mothers grab the pups by the scruff when they are naughty, so that's what I do if Teegy has to be disciplined. He already knows, they already know they have been naughty, and he knows that means mum isn't happy.
I pick him up and he gets a good telling off.
No tapping, no taping, and NO HITTING WITH A ROLLED NEWSPAPER under shin, chin, or whereever with whatever -- no hitting period. Goodness! Sometimes when I think some things go without saying, I guess they don't!
