Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

| Very good read... but makes me worried. 12 weeks... I never knew that. We got Snow at 8 weeks. Does that mean that she might become a biter? She is a little mouthy but we're working with her. Will that be enough? |

Yup! Loved this post about how she started the rescue, too! Ordinary people doing extraordinary things! Any one of us could be a hero, too! http://taysiablue.blogspot.com/2012/05/butterfly-effect-mackeys-story.html |

Eight weeks is the minimum age at which they should go to their new home. I think they really need to learn bite inhibition before about 18 weeks old. I really like the puppy training textbook at Dog Star Daily. It tells you about developmental priorities for socialization here and about teaching bite inhibition here. If you do that, then Snow will turn out just fine I expect you are doing most of it already. |

| I got Kale at five weeks and he's not mouthy and very well-adjusted; course i worked hard with him and socialized him with every type of situation imaginable before he turned 5 months. I didn't have to take him, but i know he wouldn't have lived another 48 hours. He was a sick boy.

I think the article is a great cautionary tale for people looking at breeders. |
