Create a channel Learn moreWorking with our new pup and trying to reign in the biting. He might be 10 weeks-ish now. When he first comes out of the kennel in the morning he needs little corrections. Usually just a ‘tssst’. Sometimes accompanied with an extremely light fingers touch to his side. My wife and I are the only ones giving him the bigger scruff of the neck holds until he submits. After one of those he is usually good to go for a while. But often with my 5 and 3 year old he likes to play bite bite litter mate dominance games when we aren’t paying rapt attention. I have resorted to pretending like I’m not watching so I can catch him in the act and correct him immediately. If he bites them and either my wife or I walk up he reverts to perfect angel status. ”What, who me?!”
Does he just need more time or is there something else I can do? I figure after enough corrections he’ll figure it out and quit. But I just want to make sure there isn’t some simple thing I’m missing.

We are here for you brother. Bronson can play with all of our dogs on the other side when it is his time. They will help him out and he will have friends.I have read most of the posts about losing a dog. It rips my heart out. My Bronson doesn't have long to live. What an awesome dog. I'm sorry I am am losing it.
What a beautiful girl.This was Lisl von Schlaf. She passed away on 05JAN24 in her sleep at 11 years, 3 months, and 9 days. I miss her dearly. She was my fifth German Shepherd Dog I raised and trained from a pup. She was the most intelligent of the lot, and I think a lot smarter than I knew. She was so easy to train she would have a command learned in less than an hour and never forget it. Excellent personal protection dog, knew basic and advanced obedience, agility exercises, and tracking.
Her ashes are sitting beside me.
I wish I had better words for you at this time.I have read most of the posts about losing a dog. It rips my heart out. My Bronson doesn't have long to live. What an awesome dog. I'm sorry I am am losing it.

Piper thinks she’s human sometimes and she gets a little too comfy after a day of playing.Lisl would sleep like that on the couch too.
That’s more comfort than meds and parents…hehehe
That is a good looking pooch.
Jolly Roger the Pirate Dog had a close encounter with a skunk last night. I let him out about 10:30 for his last potty trip. As soon as I opened the door he took off chasing and barking at something. I stepped out to see what it was and it was a skunk! I hollered for him to come back, but he chased the skunk till he got to the radio fence boundary.
Jolly came running back to me and started rubbing his face in the grass so I knew he got sprayed. The skunk didn't get a full dump on him, but did get him in the face, chin, and neck. Jolly ran past me back into the house (I hadn't closed the door) and rubbed his face on the dining room and bedroom carpet before I could catch him. I caught him and headed for the bath tub.
The wife got the dog shampoo and I started washing him. Dogs usually don't like their face rinsed but he kept sticking his face under the spray nozzle and he was licking the water spray trying to get the taste out of his mouth. The wife mixed up some vinegar & water and I poured that over him then rinsed him good. The mix worked and he didn't smell like skunk after we got him dried off.
The house still smelled this morning and its from where Jolly rubbed his face on the carpet. We aired out the house and sprayed the carpet. It will probably be a day or two before the stink is all gone. We've had dogs for 38 years and this was our first skunk encounter.
