    Lola does have this one big problem that is bothering me and everyone one else. She bites/attacks your feet and if she gets near your face she goes crazy like biting the hell out of it but not in an aggressive way. Also she does the same with your hands and arms she bites hard enough to draw blood everytime.

    Well she still has her puppy teeth so theyre gunna be sharp!

    What we did was we got a pair of like leather work gloves and used those as play rough gloves for mystic. It was a really good way for her to burn alot of energy and know when playtime was. When me/my bro/my stepdad put the gloves on she knew she was allowed to bite and scratch and play rough. (all playfully of course, its not like she was going for our throats haha). It was really cute bc eventually she would pick up the gloves and bring them over to us when she wanted to play.

    When she bites just tell her no. But when she gives kisses be sure to praise her so she knows what to do.

    Awww those pics remind me of when my little Maggie was a pup. I have two English bullies and they have such personalities. Some words of advice on the chewing, I used everything from the pet store to spray on things and nothing worked! She chewed everything from our shoes to the kitchen cabinets. When she got bigger she chewed up our countertops! We went through over 10 dog beds, even ones of the "chew proof" kong beds. She just gets blankets now lol. We did find that walking her twice a day helped a lot and I bought this stuff from the local drug store to put on things for her chewing. It was a tiny bottle of liquid for ear aches. Can't remember the name of it, but it worked a lot better than the bitter apple.

    Also they are very smart but they are overpowered by stubbornness. You have to really be a dog lover to own a bully but they are sooooo worth it. I would never own another breed. Good luck and enjoy the days she is little. My girl put on a pound a day for two weeks after we got her. Here's my babies. One right after we got her and one recent.

    Shes pretty old now though so shes wayyy more mellow. I dont mind eing her human slave since she wont be around much longer
    Yeah, sucks that big dogs don't live that long. Mine is getting a gray muzzle and he's only 8. He has definately mellowed out, he would rather be inside than out. 2 years ago, he never wanted to be inside.

    I would find her appropriate chew toys. You want to discourage biting and chewing on you. I know German Shepherds can be very "mouthy". Good luck, and may your patience be with you. Puppies are a lot of work. I'm not looking forward to starting over when my guy goes. Although he was never a destructive chewer and he would break down the back door before he potties in the house. But all the training and energy, ugh, makes me tired just thinking about it. You should consider cats, they are great......:p

    my baby is 14 now

    She really slowed down when she hit like 9 or 10. Bought the same age as when yours did. She sleeps like 20hours a day now. She comes outside for like 20min and doesnt even want to lay in the shade anymore. She just wants to go back inside and sleep lol. What type of dog you have?

    Mike, sorry your baby is that old. I know it will be a sad day when mine goes. I love him, he's a momma's boy.

    ****UPDATE*****

    More pics!!! and she went to her first vet visit (with me) She was at 23 pounds! But that was 2 weeks ago. She goes in again for booster shots in another 2 weeks. Cant see how much she has gained again lol.

    She is now in puppy training courses now too!! She finally pooped out side for the first time a few days ago! and she is starting to pee outside every time we go for a walk. We now walk twice a day but sometimes once a day but if it is once I day I try to make it about an hour walk. She is meeting tons of new puppys at her training classes and around the apartment. She is UBER social to kids,puppys, old dogs, and just about everything else lol.

    ANYWAYS! Here are teh pics!











    AND THE ABSOLUTE CUTEST FOR LAST!

    Aw I'm glad she's coming asking with her potty training. Its really awesome that you're putting her through classes... Too many ppl neglect substantial training of any sort;,at-home or in-class. Classes are great for teaching them to learn with distractions present and socializing them too. Good luck with yer babah!
