Teenage Behaviour???

Caley is 6 and half months now and the last couple of weeks she has been behaving like she did when we first got her.

Firstly, she is back to trying to nip us and is barking at us, to me it looks like she is asking us to play. My only concern is she grabs hold of my 9 year old's hand or arm, does not bite down or anything but tries to pull him along, if he tells her no, she just get really excited and starts running around everywhere jumping on everyone amd and she is getting big now so hurts alot more. If I tell her no it is the same thing, she just pretends she is nipping at my feet, does not actually make contact. The only thing that stops her is putting her in timeout but she is a nightmare to catch when she goes off on one. If I turn my back and try to ignore her, she continue barking at me and pretends to nip, its really hard to ignore her and keep my back turned.

In all other aspects she is really good, we might have one or two episodes of this once a day. She also seems to have a mad five minutes after she has been out for a good run over the field, but then collapses.

Is this all just normal teenage behaviour?

I think so. Sounds like the puppy zoomies all over again. Callie still does very occasionally when she is overtired (one occasion was last night when I got too close while she was tearing around and she almost nipped my nose!)

We used to ignore Callie or just pop her in her crate (after 5 minutes of which she would be snoring).

Sounds about right. Just go back to basics and be patient it will end in time
