She is 11 weeks old. # 1. For the last two weeks I have had her, her ears have been like this: Straight up and pricked. Now they are like this: Hanging down and floppy. Is this OK, is it nothing to be worried about? # 2. Sometimes I take her off her leash on walks for a...

My puppy has a biting problem. Here are the things I have tried: # When she bites, saying OUCH in a high pitched voice. She looks at me, bites again, I say OUCH again, and then growl. She ignores me and conitinues to bite, so I walk out of the room, but she follows at my feet and slips...
