As far as the biting goes.....I play with my pups until they bite too hard. When that happens, I say ouch....then move away and not play. It has really taught them not to bite hard. Being ignored is not fun for them! Pad training Tatiana is going great here....she is now 15 weeks and going majority of the time by herself! I began by taking her after every meal, immediately upon waking and after playing. I always say "potty" and give her time. If she tries to leave without going, I repeat the process until she goes. I do watch her close and yes, she does have accidents! She is only 15 weeks and that is to be expected. I do not get upset, just clean it up and wipe the area with vinegar. Praise for good behavior with some play time is her reward. I do not use treat but others do and have good results. It will get easier with time. Hang in there! |
