Another reason why the so called submissive stuff does not work. I would never suggest someone do this. I am betting she bit you because she was scared. Try positive methods

In the meantime, Paco was a total couch potato and didn't care where I set him. We'll start the classes in a couple of weeks and hope they help. She even bit me and drew blood recently when I tried to put her in the submissive position after she started growling. I made myself stick with in once I'd started, but I'm hoping the crate idea works better than the submissive thing did. ...thanks again, Annette --- In [email protected], "Rylee O'Neill" <ryleeone...@...> wrote: > > 12 weeks is still very young.
