I got our baby, Hank last thursday when he was only 5 weeks old. Over the last few days Hank will growl, turn his head and bite me. Not nip, bite. His bite my face twice when i kick him up. It took me by surprise. He is only 3+ pounds and is so so very cute. But that level of aggression at this age has me worried.
He had to taken away from his mom early because she had medical issues. he was the smallest in his liter.
Hank is not my first boy puppy. We had a 13 year old, 100 pound Weimaraner who wanted to be alpha. So i understand the need for me to exhibit the alpha role, but i had no clue that it was need this early. I'm worried about children coming to the house.
Please advise me on how to stop this behavioral.
