Oh yeah baby, I am the meanest mom on earth. And proud of it.
I made the 20yo take HIS puppy with him when he went out tonight. That cute lil Pupples has been biting us all.
Jaws goes after feet. He wants to bite hands and arms. We are all trying to discipline by gently holding his mouth closed and saying NO sternly. Lil sucker keeps on biting.
I sicced him on his owner. Muahahahahahah.
20yo shot me evil look. Like I care? nuh uh, grow up son.
Yesterday was intriguing. Every psych resident has their own quirks and it is educational trying to figure out the best approaches.
Since the staff and residents wear street clothes, only the CNAs wear scrubs, I find it hard to tell who is staff and who is not. Some residents are obvious. Some, not so much.
Kinda sounds like society doesn't it?

Sensible, yes

I take back what I said about the cute puppy.
The staff and residents reminds of the line by Wednesday at the end of The Addams Family when asked why she didn't dress up for Halloween. "I'm a homicidal maniac. They look just like everyone else." Mwahahaha...
grab said dog by the nape of his neck and shake him. do that every time. then pin that dog down so he's laying on his side and keep him there until he stops struggling and stays there when you remove your hand. that makes you boss. do that every single time he tries to bite you. he'll stop.
right now it's a game. you don't want it to be a game. you don't want that pup to grow up and bite other people because then it's a dead dog.
shaking the dog, if you do it without lifting it off it's back legs, won't hurt him and is exactly what a momma dog would do. pinning the dog down is what the alpha dog would do.
Sounds just like Jake when he was a pup - and he didn't respond to anything. Not redirection to a toy, not the shake can, not the squirt bottle . . . finally started redirecting his attention to some training. Had treats handy all the time, and when he got rowdy, I'd pull out a treat and start training -- teach him how to sit, down, follow the treat, etc. Worked pretty well. The alpha dog treatment might also work -- but every human in the house has to be alpha over the pup - he has to be at the BOTTOM of the pack.
