Hi everyone,
My wife and I have just adopted an 8 week old Boxer, and are currently on Day 4. She is fawn coloured with a half white half black face. My wife did a lot of research before we made a decision, but when we saw Layla we were both smitten.
We are currently just puppy pads for training (a bit hit and miss), and are going through the mouthing and biting phase, although the biting only occurs when playing. We have read various tips:
placing something else in her mouth
using a 'NO', we read somewhere a gutter noise works well (we haven't had any success with that)
and even rolling her over on to her back until she calms down.
It's only been 4 days and we understand she is so young, we just want to get a handle on these things so we can have the best possible relationship with her,
The crate training is excellent, we put it up and sat with her, she ran straight in and will go in of her own accord.
We welcome any advice from walkies to playing to pooping
