More obedience work - she's 7 months old - entering her "terrible teenager" years. She will test your boundaries, and the limits of your patience. Be consistent and firm, but not cruel.

Ugh, Growing pains...You think all animals go through it?
Rule out anything medical first. Then worry about training. It realy does sound like soreness. Elvis had similar issues at about that age and it turned out being a medical problem.

Could be something wrong, have your vet check out her hips. could be that terrible teenage stage. Star got pretty snappy about then. Just keep up with the training. might be a good time to join an obedience class, you can get assistance from a pro that way.![]()

I agree with ruling out some physical problem, before assuming it is behavioral. I know how scary this must be for you...but she is just communicating with you in the best way that she knows how. It will be up to you to figure out what she is telling you!
Best wishes and lots of good vibes coming from Hawaii!!

I would take her to the vet to see if anything physically is wrong with her, if not (I am hoping there isn't anything wrong with her..), contact a behaviorist. please keep us updated. I do agree with Suki, though that it could have been rough playing.
