BMAK Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Hi every one i rescued a very young pup, i do not have an exact age as he grows so quick i can only assume he is 3.5 weeks to 5 weeks old. he is a big mouther, and biter (latches on with his toothy pegs) i want to correct him when he bites to hard and holds but he does not respond to squeels, i have a feeling he has not been in a pack environment for long. my dogs don't really want anything to do with him and just walk away, my older girl has told him off once for getting in her face, just wondering what actions i can/should mimmic to bring this dog up to learn the correct social skills. so when he is in a pack environment he can read body language and other dogs signals to approach correctly and understand when to back off. any ideas ?

becks Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Sounds older then you describe, have you got any photos? Squeeling can just egg on some pups and make them more hyper, a deep sounding 'ow' and ignoring right away can be better. Also make sure pup gets plenty of nap time as over tired pups can be a lot more 'devil child' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
