This is one of my little girls favorite things to do. It helps the dogs respect her and practice what i expect them to do with a little one. Be calm and patient. At first i had to make sure they did a sit or down when she fed them. Now they remember for the most part.

I absolutely am not a professional dog trainer, though i have watched many dog training videos and figured out some things that work for me. I make a lot of mistakes! But it would be fun to be in this puppy-raising adventure together!

Teaching a first Leave it with food. I was holding the phone so I couldn't use my other hand, but you want body language to go with it. I put my hand between her and the thing, while i say leave it

Preventing feet/pants biting and teaching them to leave the food pouch or any dangling clothes items.

How to prevent biting and jumping/over excitement.
It's in the prevention, not so much the correction. Teach them what you expect (sitting, leave it, calm behavior with hands, clothes, etc ..) and reward it BEFORE they have a chance to nip, if possible. Redirect biting (which is instinctive and how they naturally play) to toys, lots of chew bones, raw meaty bones, sticks, pine cones, etc... Teach them it's ok to bite those, so they can satisfy their urge that way. Also, a tired (physically and mentally) puppy is a good puppy. Take them somewhere new everyday, if possible, for the first several weeks. Have them free run outside, chase you, fetch a toy, etc...

So the priority for this little one right now is socialization with people. A couple of weeks ago she became all of a sudden hesitant around new people, so we have been trying to take her to a new place every day where there are people and she can play at a safe distance at first, and reward her if they approach her or she approaches them. If she acts scared we back off a bit. Today she approached on her own a lot of people and children at the park! She is getting so much better!!!

So we kept this little girl from our litter. I'm pretty sure this was our last litter with Jade. But we are having so much fun with her. I'm going to be posting her training and socialization hoping it might be helpful to those who got my pups.

Bubbles!!! Her name says it all! Bubbly personality, friendly, cute and sweet. Her favorite training practice is heel and she is doing really good at it! Very curious, confident and active. The littlest of all at 3.9 lbs. She is 8 weeks and looking for her new loving home.
