Hello All -
We just got our first bulldog puppy, she is 8 weeks today and we noticed lately that she very aggressively biting Fingers, charges at your face, and attacks your feet when walking, now she even has started growling and biting when we try to pick her up to remove her from the behavior she is doing. Are these early signs of her being an aggresive puppy/dog or is this all part of the puppy learning process. What methods do you recommend to correct these behaviors saying NO and stop walking until she loses interest doesn’t seem to be working, she will sometimes redirect to her toy but sometimes not.
We also want her to be really socialized with people and other dogs but have been told to avoid having her with other dogs until she has been fully vaccinated or only with a dog we know is vaccinated the only problem is we are new to our state and don’t know anyone to have her play with yet, any advice on how we can get her socialized without formally introducing her with other dogs?
Thank you all so much!
