:w00t: Sounds like she is missing her littermates for some WILD play time! At her age I would recommend watching for low blood sugar with all that exercise.. Ask your vet to explain if you are unaware of how it can happen with puppies. The growling may be her invitation to play? Jeanne

Shelby The other posts are so right... that the biting is unacceptable and when puppies are with momma even long after weaning they are trained by momma and littermates that biting is unacceptable.. One training class I went to described it this way. Puppies want to play and if while playing someone gets hurt then the playing stops. So puppies learn to "pretend" bite and chew on one another to keep the playing going. If there is a single pup in the litter sometimes these puppies are more head strong and need more training. Isn't it great to have SM and enjoy all the help .. I am learning so much! Jeanne :blush:
