Bah. It takes only a few examples to train a puppy...it's not that hard.

You should have punished him.

Then this wouldn't be happening.

It's not bad. Make sure you do it immediately in retaliation for the 
misbehavior. Don't use your hand, use a rolled up magazine or something. You 
don't hit them to hurt them....it's the action and the sternness in your 
voice that gets the message across.

No you don't, you just need to train the poor thing, then you'd both be 
happier :)
