She barks for no reason at us, like shes trying to get tough, but we dont want to show her weakness. Ive tried clapping, say no in affirmative voice, but she gets louder sometimes.
SHE CHEWS ****** UP, AND DOESNT RESPOND WELL TO NO, SHE DO IT AGAIN.

I need the DOG WHISPER AT MY HOUSE!

SHES BITTEN ME IN THE NOSE! AND THEN KEPT BARKING AT ME, WHILE I TRY TO CALM IT DOWN.

First, learn how to make a post without sounding like a 4 year old or a retard.

Second, learn how to link. We can't even copy/paste your image.

Third, stop cussing so much, all the ****** makes it that much harder to read your post.

err if this is serious.... u've waited too long.
get training books man. the longer you wait, the more set in its ways it will be. its in development stages and it is important u don't miss the window for easy training, it goes fast since their life spans are compressed compared to ours. do not pretend its just a little human and think common sense is good enough training. dog has different understanding and will interpret your behavior different from your intent. you have to learn a dogs limitations and how to use its pack social structure mentality to your benifit. your dog thinks its boss because of what you've been telling it. hitting it will do no good while u give all the wrong signals like u probably are now. you must be consistent. bah.

simple start. bad behavior like biting= no attention.

and don't keep it outside. its a pack animal. deprive it and makeit feel abandoned and it will become needy and misbehave.

Have you done any training with the dog? That probably would've helped with some of this before it began.

Say "NO!" or "HEY!" loudly and then turn around and IGNORE the dog.

Like children, dogs thrive off of attention, and if they're not reinforced then they will cease the behavior.

It worked with my puppy and I hope it works with yours. Good luck.

When the dog does something you don't want it to, you're supposed to first show that you are the master, and to show this, you have to shove the dog to the ground and hold it until it completely stops. After doing that a few times, It'll catch the hint that it should listen to you.

 

[MrsBugi]

Also, if the dog bites you hard, it is okay to firmly push his head away from you while saying "NO!" and turning away to ignore him.

Puppies get a lot of their socialization skills from their brothers, sisters, and parents. Another dog would push him away if he were to bite or yelp in pain (a high-pitched "ow!" which tells the dog he's bitten too hard), if he were to bite it.

Do NOT hit your dog, as this will only teach him that you are fully capable of doing mean things.

If any dog bit me I'd kill it.

The key is consistency.

i feel that a nice light magazine rolled up to bonk it on the nose with an affirmitive, deep "NO" is a good way to go, cuz you get the noise of the magazine along with the hit(test it on your hand to see if it's too firm, too much thickness and it'll be pretty solid), dont go terminator style on it cuz it'll hurt, but give it a firm plop. Or you could use your hand, just as effective. And try to set rules, dont let it break em sometimes(ie. sometimes you let it on the couch, but when you dont want it there you push it off) when you feel like it, so it's just a right and wrong, it's easyer for the dog to understand that way till it learns no. Oh, and pups are gonna chew everything they can get there hands on, its the way it goes, try getting her toys that shee likes to chew, though she's still gonna chew crap you dont want so try to keep stuff like that away from her.

Edit: All and all though, puppys are alot of work, and it's not always easy(some dogs are are more of a pain in the ass than others, they have different personalitys like people), so have fun!!

It also makes you sound like person with a temper problem right off the bat.

"smack her ass softly with my fingers" hehe sounds a tad too sexual for a punishment for a dog.....this is a real dog were talking about and not your twisted sex life right?
