I was just reading your replies and they were eating a treat bone each. My gf picked up the female and she growled at her and snapped.

Another probably minor thing I should mention that I noticed recently is since we started training with treats when I go to pet them and say good boy or girl and I’ve either just given them a reward treat or not, they duck under my hand and back away or if I don’t have a treat and have just called one over they sniff my hand and then leave again right away. Basically saying. “What?!? No treat!? Screw you! I’m outa here! “ lol.

Thanks. That’s great news. Pretty much exactly the things we are doing so far. They do squabble when together but it seems more like growly play with a few squeaks of “ouch that hurt” They have also started, at the odd time, a seemingly angry lunge and growl at us each. It’s happened to me once last night and Lorry a few times recently. It’s also happened to Lorry’s daughter a few times over the last few days.

Hi. My gf and I recently brought a new puppy pair into the home. We are struggling now due to the puppies bonding with each other more then with us. Is it possible to work with them while together or do we need to find a way to separate them for extended periods? Days? Weeks?
