Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Dogs aren't allowed to go to the dog park until they've had all their shots! So another couple months. And I've tried giving plenty of different chew toys but they are clearly not as fun as my arm or my hand or my boob or my earring or my notebook or my headphones or or or...

Yes, I meant to ask the same.

meara, if you let out a yelp (like another dog would if hurt) it will help the puppy learn that you are not a chew toy. Like a human baby, that is how puppy is learning about the world.

Nope ... not sure where the story went to ... it was a woman who got a kit to make her own vibrator.

Lily Bean had a long Bite Everyone All The Time stage in her kittenhood.
There is a reason "No Biting" is part of Erzabet's name. But yes, letting out a yelp and dramatically pulling your hand away will help the puppy learn not to do that. Or to at least do it very gently, which is what Miss Erzabet does now.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Time for job-ma, y'all. I have a meeting in 8 minutes with the contract job to talk about their progress in getting me a full-time position.

So much job~ma, Dana!

Good luck Dana!!
Am definitely trying to teach puppy! It's a slow process, though. After being wild from 7am until 8:30am, puppy has been chill since. Whew.

My sister had a cat that, when she decided she'd been petted enough or didn't want to be held, would bite. And bite hard. She eventually became socialized enough that when she'd hit a limit, she'd make a feint as though she were going to bite, but stop before sinking her teeth in. Made staying with them a lot less likely to involve bleeding.
Also - possibly of interest to Atropa - the Washington Post's Sunday magazine section had an article about Magic: The Gathering tournaments.
