Its a proven fact. plain and simple.. just becuase she was weaning them doesnt mean jack...well you know. If you found a good breeder, you would have got a dog at 8 weeks, not 6. a good breeder wouldnt sned them home at 6 weeks. As they DO learn from their littermates and mom. Also avoid the dog park and beach untilt he dog has all shots. he can very easily catch a deadly disease when he doesnt have all shots ATM

I don't believe he made this thread to start a fight. I think he definitely handled the situation poorly and was rude, but I don't think he intended to start a fight.
Your very first post in this thread had a handful of, some of which were completely irrelevant to the topic. It appeared to me that you were looking for things to criticize.
Anyhow, send me the PM again if you want to discuss further as we are hijacking this thread.

As you can see I have reposted the original message.
And also as you can see there is nothing in my message asking as to how the problem came to be.
You say there's respected people on here blah blah blah. I don't doubt that at all. I think some of you genuinely have good advice to provide for people like me. But others are just out to try and prove to people that they think they know things about something.
OMG WOW SO WHAT HE MAY HAVE BEEN TAKEN EARLY FROM HIS MOTHER. To be honest, who gives a cr*p. I never asked for excuses or reasons as I have just stated. All I asked for was for nice people to offer some sort of advice to help me get rid of the problem.
Now for those of you who are thinking about writing a rebuttal for this post, i suggest you re-read this a few times over and let it sink in that I NEVER ASKED FOR A REASON WHY HE WAS DOING IT, ONLY FOR SOME HELP TO FIX THE PROBLEM.
Who cares if you think your right. From my own experience there has been nothing wrong with taking him from his mother two weeks earlier. I just have to teach him more. I didnt say I was right, but i dont think im wrong either. I dont think its about right or wrong.
I think alot of you are just being pathetic and try to let ppl know that you know something.
I am seriously just repeating myself to most of you over and over again and you still dont get the message. PLEASE for heavens sake read over the posts again so you fully understand what it originally asked.
I appreciate advice on what to do to stop the problem. I didnt ask for the history behind it. Just because you think you know something doesnt mean you have to try and show off attempting to get 'respect'.
If you want respect your going the wrong way about it.
I knew someone would come back with a stupid smart ass post about it being a 'public forum'. Like really, how predictable and pathetic. OOOOOOO you shot me down soooooo good! NICE ONE! Really grow up.
If some of you actually were smart you would just go away instead of antagonising a new poster.
I genuinely came here seeking guidance. Not criticism. How dare you claim that im wrong for taking him away etc.
I live in Australia. Not every country is like yours.
Alot of you think your something special, that you deserve respect. When in actual fact your just someone sitting behind a computer screen tapping away saying whatever you feel like because you cant be harmed. You can't just COMMAND respect.
I apologise if I've offended some of you. I thank the people who have offered friendly helpful advice without feeling the need to critisise or stray from the topic.
To the rest of you, as much as it might make you cry, please try and refrain from posting a predictable, pathetic, smart a*s rebuttal and just stop coming to this thread.
Thanks Trucker for the kind words.

omg i have the funniest thing to tell you.
Someone actually reported me for my comment about the Playstation.
I have recieved one infraction point and a note saying that the comment was of the top. Telling me to dial it back.
OMFG that is hilarious.
To whoever reported it congratulations. You've succeeded in proving that your a child.
'Oh mummy he hit me! *boy cries to his mother*'
LMFAO!

LOL no you got hostile to some honest questions. NO ONE criticized you. I am sorry you find hostility where none is meant. I suggest you read this site for a while to see that people here care about dogs.. very deeply. We want you to be happy with your dog. But if you don't want to see where the issues lie *shrugs.. well asking for help and then shoving everyone back.. don't be surprised if people DO get hostile.
(oh suggested reading.. the stuff Ridgeback Guy posted at the beginning.. he was a great newbie dog owner who came in asked for advice, was polite, and picked what worked for him. Not only did we help him with his puppy he is now a valuable member of this community)

see bashing people and asking for help in the same paragraph. How is someone to know which they are in your eyes?
Well it DOES matter. For two reasons, this way you can not repeat the same mistake twice
And knowing why the problem is happening can help you fix it. It often helps people to know they aren't causing the problem, that its due to circumstance. So really saying those things were meant to HELP you.. not criticize you.
Well this is not exactly a rebuttal... its simply an explanation... to HELP you get the information you want.
So then why ask for help if we know so little. Really you come on here wanting FREE advice.. some of us teach classes and are trainers, many of us are breeders, and people who show in obedience, agility etc..(heck I do tv/movies with my animals, teach, show and breed.. but I don't know anything about puppies) but since you already know more about dogs that us.. why should we give you advice you aren't paying for? You start off by stating you know more than pretty much all the research, and knowledge out there about the raising of puppies.. by knowing that you aren't wrong for thinking its ok to take a young puppy.
I do know something.. lots of somethings If you browse this site you will find the members are VERY experienced, intelligent and often articulate (not me though-I lack the articulation)
So insulting the people again.... I did read... I did FULLY UNDERSTAND.
Personally I find respect is earned so I dont' give two hoots about your opinion of me either way. BUT if you want people to grow up, and give you advice you are going about it the wrong way.
Hai my IQ is 160... so I don't care what you say I know I am smart
Well I don't see people saying YOU were wrong.. they are saying IT is wrong. People do many things before they know better. If YOU ACTUALLY read what most people were saying is that its the BREEDERS fault. We never blame people for lack of knowledge. We DO blame people who refuse to learn. People did try to genuinely help you.
Yup I live in Canada.. but dogs are the same around the world. And good breeding practices are just that. I know breeders in Au. They don't give pups away early, they help educate puppy buyers and are there to help them through this EXACT sort of thing. HEck there are other chaz members from 'down under'
Once again.. personally don't care.

Wow, someone is throwing a temper tantrum.
Can't ask for 'advice', and throw a hissy fit in the same paragraph, hon.
And for the record, I saw many great responses with advice. You may not 'care' that he was taken too young from his mother, but it has a lot to do with why he is acting the way that he is. So yes, him being pulled too young is direct result of his behavior now. And I seen someone post a great link for bite inhibition and how to stop it, but you apparently ignored that.

Enigma, the first step to solve any problem in life is to find out the reason WHY it happened, the only way to learn about something, is to humbly admit we don't know about it yet, and the only way to cure an illness is first to admit that one has an illness, second, to find out exactly what it is, and what has caused it to be.
You came here asking for a solution to a problem - but refuse to look at its cause & get so defensive when people pointed it out to you. That's not a way to solve this problem, or any other problems you may/will have in life.
If only you find it in your heart to accept that you may save lots of time being upset at others, and getting others upset at you. but instead channel all that energy into helping your dog.
