skycat 6,174 Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Most of all have fun with the pup: set gentle boundaries: no biting fingers for example. If pup wants to bite your fingers direct it on to a soft toy it can play with instead. Don't shout NO at it, just yelp to let it know that biting hurts: just like another pup would do. Try NEVER to give any negative feedback at this stage. Let the pup know that you are THE best place to be close to. Don't even try to do heel work for a long time: t'aint a natural thing for a dog to do at all. That comes later, once you have a rock solid bond. If the pup wants to bring you an old sock that you chuck for it, praise it loads and let it keep the sock: if it does it once, that's enough. A good bond is achieved when your pup comes to you carrying its toy in its mouth when you call it: don't try and take the toy off it, just praise it and let it go again, toy and all. That's enough for starters! 1 Quote Link to post
