We are about to get a GSD puppy in a couple weeks and I worry about the influence my anxious 10 year old mixed breed will have. She has a plethora of bad habits that we have never been able to train out of her no matter how hard we tried. She barks at anything and everything, eats poop, can’t handle being around strangers or other animals, steals food from her siblings (who both have passed in the last couple years), as well as having a bad habit of taking off given the opportunity.
I’m so fearful she’ll influence the puppy because some of these habits were shared with her older siblings so obviously it’s a pack thing. I don’t want a repeat and want to start with a “training” clean slate
