Puppy
Alright here's the deal, I have an almost 4 month old American Bulldog/Pitbull mix puppy. I know and understand that puppies teeth and like to chew but she is bringing this to a whole other level. She has tons of chew toys, Kong's, ropes and doggie treats, bones and mini knot bones to keep her occupied. I use a stern voice when I catch her in the act and depending on the seriousness of her actions I will clap my hands. Now the problem is I can't even sit on the couch without her biting my whole body including my face. I've worked overy single day with her for the last two months 're-directing her bite to a toy but nothing has changed its getting much worse! I also have a 3 year old and 4 month old daughter and my 3 year old has dozens and dozens of scratches from this dog and will grab a hold of her continuously . She's jumped in my infants swing and bit her on 3 occasions. She's literally tore apart every pair of socks I own our molding in our kitchen and various other items in the house. Neither my kids, fiancee nor myself can sit and watch t.v without being bitten and when she's bites she whips her head back and forth. I'm just sick and tired of my kids, fiance and myself getting hurt. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Now my other problem is her potty training.. I legitimately take her outside every 20 minutes and she will go outside and Pee 1-2 times and when I bring her in she will immediately sniff around and pee again!? I reward her when she goes outside I've redirected her outside when she does it and nothing has improved at all. I'm am a first time dog owner but have grown up around all kinds of dogs including Pitbulls but I have to say I'm getting more than frustrated and discouraged here and Dont know how much more I can take esp. With the biting of my kids.
