I swear I can see her growing everyday. This was Sarah when we first got her:
Here's our Sarah today. Keep in mind she's just 15 weeks old. Take a look at the size of her paws. She's gonna be a big girl.
She's still doing pretty well behaviorally but she still, as all puppies do, has her issues. Just yesterday, when my 5 year old came into the house, Sarah jumped at him and started biting his clothes in much the same way she bites at Sammy our Golden Retriever when she wants to play. We yell "no!" in an effort to keep drilling it into her head that that behavior like that is simply not allowed, but she's got that puppy brain still and she forgets. My husband even went so far as to spank her. We're taking her to weekly obedience classes on Thursday nights, so we think that will help quite a bit. She also gets the chance to meet customers on almost a daily basis, so she's getting quite a bit of socialization. On the whole, she's doing well.
Your dog is so cute.. :_)

I know this sound mean but try to hurt her feelings that she did something wrong and harp on it for 1/2 hour and she gets know attention from know one. Give her a time out if you have a cage. Make her know you are mad. When they are big sometime you have to show them whos boss and don't back down. Depends on the dog. For me the big dog are easier. We live on 5 acers sometime they make me so made I go crazy on them yelling just to let them know I am made and not to do that again. It work but you have to be firm. I have had several dogs in my life and you know I do the same thing to my cows and it works of course I can't put them in a cage you know.
Hope this helps out. Glenn
