| Trainers In Middle Georgia? Does anyone know of a good trainer in the Mid Georgia area? I really think we need something beyond the Petsmart group training. They seem very 'relaxed' and generic. I think we need more one-on-one. I wish Cesar Milan was available! I even tried some of his techniques. Maybe they don't work on puppies. Betty is 'overly-aggressive' when she bites. When I play with her with a toy...she wants to jump at my hands and bite them instead...too hard! I've tried giving her a toy instead, reprimanding, etc. If I am on the floor with her playing, insread of playing with a toy or chewy, she will jump up and try to snag my hands instead. She is just way too rough. Does anyone else have this problem? Or a good suggestion? Thanks. |

| I've read in Jan Fennel's "Dog Listener" that when a pup gets rough like that, to make a big fuss over being bit and turn away from the aggressor. If puppy can't play nice, then she doesn't get to play with you. Jan pretty much teaches the same way as Cesar does. I learned alot about understanding how dogs think by reading that book. |
