Well, I supposed Miss Marley is well adjusted now having spent almost 5 days with us. She's quite the nibbler.
Thing I'm trying to establish is whether or not I'm seeing agression already, or if she is just being a silly meatheaded puppy
She is sneaky, she'll lick your foot, and slowly bring her teeth in and she'll nip you pretty hard. Everytime she nips me, I tell her no sternly and give her a tap on the nose but she still continues to do it.
She also LOVES shoes, and while we try to keep all those away from her, she is sneaky and got into the closet and chewed up my flip flops.
Housebreaking is easier than it should be in my opinion. She already goes to the door, and we've only have one accident.
She just seems a little more nippy than a usual 8 week old pup. She also took off on my dad this morning when he let her out to pee. She dashed down the street and around the corner.
Are there any tips I can use to get her to understand that I am the dominate? I am afraid to try to alpha roll, and don't know any other ways.
