Luvsdogs2,
There is a book I always recommend for dog training issues.
"The Loved Dog" by Tamar Geller.
I can always find it at Half Price Books, or it is at any of the major book retailers.
In no way am I an expert on dog behavior but I have had pups with issues and this book helped me more than any advise I ever received. I read Cesar Milan, took class, etc..... but this method of training always helped me.
I hope you have the time to read it, I know how busy school can make you
and how crazy homework loads can be.
If you take the time to properly train your dog you will find that almost nothing in this life is more rewarding. He/she will be your constant companion and devoted best friend for life. Dogs are so pleasing and learning is like the most fun thing ever for them because it makes you happy. You have this great big chance to bring your whole family (future family) to a whole new level of closeness.
Best of luck to you. Maybe one day we can see a picture of this little rascal of yours, no?
