Re: [cockapoo] Aggressive puppy

Hi There...sounds like she's playing, but a bit too roughly and agressively. You are going to have to be just as aggressive with her esp now in her puppy hood so she'll understand what is acceptable behavior...with Delilah, who is also a dominant female, and was aggressive in her play...I was very diligent in letting her know how far she could take it...I worked with her, and if she got too aggressive, I just put my finger up right in front of her face and gave her a stern NO...after awhile all I had to do was hold my finger up, and she knew to stop...she's just a baby, and is testing the waters...how far is she allowed to go? You need to set the limits with her now whenever you are with her and she starts acting out...Good luck, and let us know how she is progressing? What's her name??

If anyone has any thoughts/suggestions on how to handle an agressive
10 week old female pup, I would really appreciate it.  She's trying to
dominate the woman of the house.  Lots of growling and snarling.
