Default Puppy nipping

Thank you so much Marty for getting back to me. I did read the section you mentioned and I think with frequency she will get it. I did not however know that tug of war (which of course she likes) is not good behavior to get into. I will stop that immediately! She is a very sweet and sharp dog and watches me intently for signals arleady....and I am gentle but firm & very calm with repremands. I did the AHHH noise and she stopped, but she started up pretty fast again. I just tried putting out my hand and doing what you said with the noise and ignoring her and that seemed to work even better. I do not want to get her hand shy though.

Thanks again for your help.....I LOVE the program I purchased! This is an invaluable resource.....I will be recomending it to all my dog owner friends!
