Thank you.

We have a 12 week old Lab that has been with us 2 weeks now. He's a serious biter, and it's a real problem for us (we have small children in the home). I've been researching all the different biting solutions – Sympawtico, Zak George, etc… but I have yet to see them work with one as aggressive as ours is.

When he bites, he does NOT let go. I have tried screaming "ouch!" and my wife and kids have genuinely cried… He stays firmly attached. I will offer him chews/bully sticks, but he will drop them and go right back for our skin. I want to reward him for letting go with encouragement and treats, but he just will not do it on his own – I have to pry his mouth off of my kid's legs and arms. When I try to disengage and walk away, he pursues and bites harder. When I try to look away to discourage the behavior, he gets aggressive and snaps at my face. I'm worried he's going to bite one of my kids in the face (he's already bitten them pretty much everywhere else – hair, legs, rear ends).

How do you disengage with a puppy that doesn't take no/ouch for an answer? It usually just tends to escalate into him throwing a tantrum of biting and snapping, so I'm forced to put him in his bed for time out… which he usually accepts, but I really want him to understand that he is crossing a boundary and that he will get so much more love and attention by not biting. My kids are already terrified of him, and he's going to get much much bigger.

Any advice?

My dog pooped yesterday and the💩 was stuck and unable to fully land on the ground for a bit (ew, I know). On closer look.. it was bc a strand of MY HAIR was in her poop?!

After the 💩fell off I had to pull out the strand of hair – didn’t even get the full strand on one pull, it broke😮‍💨

NO idea how she ended up with that in her tract 🤭

This happen to anyone else before?!

Will she grow out of it?

Hi

So I have a 4 month old female dachshund puppy , which I totally loved and pamper.

I don’t like crate training at all , nothing personal just don’t want the dog in a crate.

So I been letting her on my bed since she is a puppy and we don’t really have an accidents of pee when it comes to night time. But lately she is peeing in the bed once we come inside the house after the park or we playing and she goes to bed and pees there. Sounds like she is making it on purpose or out of excitement.

When we go out to the park or outside she usually pee and she usually uses her pee pads.

I don’t know I need help … not desperate but I want good for her and myself and to have her at the bed.

Can someone tell me what to do and what I’m doing wrong and what’s happening here?

Thanks a lot

Just got my 15 week old pup last weekend at the adoption shelter. I was also the one posting about crying on the couch yesterday because I was overwhelmed 🙂 today is much better!

Just wondering if there’s any tips or tricks with this breed or if anyone has one in general!!
