  1. Aww loving all the cute puppy pics!!! Leah just after we got her at 8 weeks: and Obi (Leah is a year older) Seems like only yesterday... about two or three months ago now (Obi one year and Leah two)
  2. hi, I have two gsp's (one 1 1/2 years and one only 6months). Both play very well with my niece and nephew (who are 5 and 7 but very slight, both pups are already huge next to them). these are my first dogs and I'm no expert but the advise I recieved about training around kids (and welcoming a new puppy into our home when the other was a very playful 1yr old) was all about establishing the object to protect as 'mine', by making it clear that the kids are not to be played with without your express permission. I was pretty lucky my dogs took the hint very quickly and don't live everyday around kids, but maybe this will help as an idea? Jumping up is also very important, as boofy gsp claws can hurt sensitive skin, Don't forget to get your pup used to thinks like gently pulling ears, taking her toys ect so she doesn't react badly if the kids do. Is ther some older kids you know who can help teach her some manners? if all else fails a tired pup is very well behaved :rolleyes: Good luck!
