Hello & help plz!!
Hello everyone!!
We picked up our puppy Bruno almost 2 wks ago he is now 9 weeks old. He has settled in brilliantly uses his puppy pads (only a few accidents!!) almost no crying on a night so I know we are really lucky BUT ... He will not listen to me or my kids(6& this has been happening for about 3 days he is biting and we are all doing the same thing a firm No and ignoring him but he still does it he is also ignoring me when he's on his mad 20mins (running round sofa,ripping up puppy pads and just generally been a little git!! Other then this he is a very cuddly little bag of fur I don't know of he is doing this because I have jobs to do like making tea cleaning and looking after 2 kids!and tbh I do sit with him a lot on the floor having cuddles lol! I have never had a pup before so any tips suggestions are welcome!!
Thanks for reading

Hi and welcome to the forum from Rocky and me
That all sounds like normal puppy behaviour, just keep doing what you're doing with ingoring it.

Hiya from me and Vinnie, all normal behaviour just keep doing what you have been and it will calm down. When you can walk out with him it will be better still. He is still very young

Welcome to the board Sarah, I'm pretty new here too and it's a really friendly helpful place.
Bruno sounds lovely, given half a chance they will try to train you instead of the other way around

Hi & Welcome from Flo and me
All very normal behaviour and your doing exactly as you should do. Sounds like he's a fast learner if he's sulking back to his bed. Think you've got a good un there

Re: Hello & help plz!!
Thank you all for your comments he is lovely I'm totally smitten haha I understand he's very young I just want to give him the best start I can for him and us all I didn't take the decision lightly and have really researched. So glad I've found this forum so I can ensure I'm doing as I should lol and yeah I can't wait to take him out he's got his 1st injections on Saturday so not too long I think that it will do him the world of good at least then I can take him to meet some other dogs!! My sister in law has 2 so that should be fun!!
Thanks again xx
Thanks again xx

Welcome from Iza and me Yeah it passes eventually try a babygate instead of his crate, gives him plenty room to run about and gives you peace for ten mins.

Hi from me and Moby, he was very similar at that age, in fact he was so chewy we could hardly ever cuddle him! So frustrating as he was really cute! He's calmed down loads since then, ( six months now) but still has mad half hour every night.
