Hi I just wanted to say thanks for the advice and no i don't believe in spanking or physically hurting an aniimal either. But For some reason maybe age or maybe more outside time but my pup has changed alot in the last week no biting and no going after my older dog either. she is calmer and more cuddly and seems to take well to being told no alot better. I still love her to peices and think she is the most adorable pup.
