what do I do about the puppy nips
« on: April 27, 2007, 04:53:56 pm »
Zig is 9 weeks old.  I do have puppy school set up for him, but until he has all of his shots I can't take him.  Any ideas about what to do with the nips he gives to my 9 year old daughter.  HE is trying to figure out who is boss.  Doesn't really try it with me or my husband.  What have other people done as I don't want a 180 pound dog thinking he's in charge of my daughter.  I know Newf's are the type to watch out for kids but I don't need another boss in the house.

Here's my new baby!! Ziggy (AKA Mr. Zigglesworth)
