Yesterday morning, I was preparing to go to church so I took my pup outside to do his business before I left for church. Just before I took him back into the house, he got excited about something he was sniffing in the grass. He started digging with a lot of excitement. I didn't have time for this so I picked him up. When I picked him up, he growled and nipped my wrist but not hard enough to cut skin. He did this to my wife too when she picked him up. He wouldn't leave the neighbor's driveway because he wanted to keep playing with the neighbor's kids.
Is this typical behavior? Is there something I should be doing when this happens?
