Hi. The lice is gone! Biscuit has been with us for 1 week. He is 9 weeks old. He is getting used to his kennel and slept 6 hours last night without a wimper, yea, we got to sleep last night!
He's very bitey, but I think it's just the desire to chew on anything. But, he does bite at my kids legs and they cry. I think he views them as playthings - prey.
I do have one question. Biscuit growls when I try to remove something from his mouth that he's not supposed to have (not every time, but on occassion). Each time, I pick him up by the back of the neck and give him a stern no. He lets out a little yelp and then I pet him after. I want him to know that I am his leader and I don't like growling. I am trying to go by the book.
Any suggestions for such a young puppy?
Thanks.
Susan
