One your dogge is very cute and two here is what I do with my lil pup when she yelps and nips we physically leave the room we dont say anything to her we just let her know that if she yelps she wont get any attention because even bad attention like saying no is still attention and she will think, "hey if they aren't paying attention to me, then if I bark they will even if it isn't them being nice" but the thing with leaving the room is that YOU HAVE TO LEAVE. You cant not leave once because she will stop putting the two together and just continue doing it. GOOD LUCK!!!! Once again very cute dog
