12 weeks is still very young. It sounds like my human children- is she tired, hungry, or overstimulated? I like giving her some down time. The training is an awesome idea. My little Frida is very much a Diva. The training we are doing is extremely helpful in an attitude adjustment. Be patient. Tell her no and give her some place safe and quiet to recover herself. Good luck!
