Hi everyone....
I have a 14 week old female doberman named Britta. This is our first doberman. We have 2 other dogs...Cynder a 5 year old Weimariner and Trigger a 4 year old German Shorthair Pointer.
We had Britta's ears cropped 2 1/2 weeks ago and they are going great from what the vet tells us. He was tempted to not post them again and see how they do but wanted to give them another week.
So far Britta is like any other puppy but I do have a question...when she is playing or sleeping and she is picked up but doesn't want to be she throws a fit! Grumbling and growling like she is so mad. This seems odd to me for a puppy to do. She does this more to my husband then she does with me. I don't want it to get worse down the road. Any suggestions how to stop this? When she does this with me I tell her firmly "NO" and will hold her muzzle until she stops. My husband tells her no but she doesn't seem to listen to him as well.
Other then her throwing a fit she is great. She knows her place in the house and listens pretty good, as good as a puppy can. I am just worried she will become aggressive later if she is already getting mad about something like that. It just seems odd for a 14 week old puppy to do that.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
