| Vecchia Modo |
| We've always used what we call, the momma method or correcting. What would their mom do ? Moms grab them by the muzzle and growl. Letting the pup know, in their language, what they just did, is a no no. Works terrific. |

| Void I literally ask people in person, online, and so forth, and they all basically told me, "Physically touching your dog is abusive, unless it's for rewarding." Dory Literally! I leave her on the leash (while watching her, for leash training), she whines and howls, when it's not even touching her body-- my dad yells at me. I scold her? Dad yells at me. |

| Greek - dogs learn from other dogs via ‘telling offs’ which can include a bit of roughness. A tap on the noise is most definitely not abusive. She will not fear you or get hurt from a tap on the nose |
| Wisteria Run Farm |
| Geek talk to your dad, then. everyone has to be on the same page for training, because otherwise it's impossible. she's just a very young pup, working with her now to stop these behaviors is extremely important, because once they get ingrained as a habit it's harder to correct. she HAS to be ignored for whining or barking. work with baby steps, a moment of quiet gets attention. any barking? no more attention |
| The Old Gods |
| crate is just a catch all term for anything the dog can be locked in. Kitty's crate was just an old cage with a pillow and blankets |
| BlackRose |
| Honestly if she does it the next best thing is to possibly stand up and avoid her. Walk around the room until she gives up and realises you’re not gonna bother with her. Every time she gets rough, get up, ignore her and wait for her to give in |
| Transformers Acres |
| Void Crates where I live at, for a dog, is about 80 bucks or higher. Stella No, haven't tried that. |
| The Undercity |
| Geek It is really frustrating but explain to your dad that it will only get worse to the point where she just won't settle because I know a dog where her owners did the same thing so she has learned that if she whines she gets let out |
| Transformers Acres |
| Dory I was told that tapping a dog, at all, in any area of its body, was abusive. I don't wanna accidentally hurt her, I just got that fear that I'll tap her, and she'll start yelping (another bad habit of hers). |
| BlackRose |
| Hm… have you tried food balls? They are balls you put favourite bits of food in, treats etc and it’ll distract them for a bit? |
| Transformers Acres |
| Solar I tried ignoring her, and she got louder, to the point my dad YELLED at me, for doing that. |
| BlackRose |
| Second what solar said. If you give into barking etc they’ll know everytime they do that you’ll respond to them. |
| The Old Gods |
| You really should crate. It's healthy and gives them a safe spot to go to when they feel scared or overwelmed. |
| The Undercity |
| Geek What has worked with all my puppies that bite is a tap on the nose and say no then dont play for awhile |
| Transformers Acres |
| Stella A ball, a rope and ball, squeaky toys. We're trying to get more, but she doesn't like these toys. |
