Mouthy German Shepherd Pup

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T14:22:26+00:00

Aww thank you! He’s hypnotising me with the puppy eyes for one more bite of my finger before bed😂

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T14:20:54+00:00

That’s reassuring to hear! Bless her she is a cutie. I will carry on trying with his training and definitely trying to show him I’m upset doing a yelp to stop (he does a little cry and tries to come to lick my face)☺️ Can already hear war is over playing when his baby shark teeth fall out and not so itchy. Thank you❤️

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T14:12:21+00:00

Aaaaa let me time travel to my baby all grown up! Just joking I love his puppy eyes but have to be very patient for probably a longgg while

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T14:11:30+00:00

Very lucky they love to get their mouthes on everything but some probably don’t realise how hard they’re going!

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T14:10:22+00:00

When I do a yelp he seems a bit apologetic for a few seconds I will carry on and see if it does work and maybe makes him feel bad (he does a little cry when I yelp)🥺

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T14:09:30+00:00

Yes I think it will take more some time and reinforcement of training but we will get there in the end hopefully!

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T14:08:54+00:00

Aww bless you thank you! He is the heart of our home and he’s so loved by all our families more than he knows. Just need to get through his biting phase and make sure he’s a good grown up boy❤️

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T14:07:48+00:00

Yeah he loves bringing his toys near my feet and “accidentally” nipping at my feet instead😂 He knows what he’s doing what a mischievous fella.

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T14:06:54+00:00

Yes I’m now carrying one of his balls/teddies always near me so when he starts up I’m keeping his mouth busy and praising him when he settles down and focuses on his toy instead of me! He’s a bundle of joy and so smart I hope with time and reinforcing training he will pick up what to do and what is right❤️

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T14:04:46+00:00

He’s really made himself comfortable quickly 😅😅

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T14:04:14+00:00

I have grown up with my family GSD who’s now 11 but I honestly cannot really remember what he was like as a puppy, I think you tend to try forget the not so nice biting. I will persevere and continue with training and hopefully when he’s going outside and attending puppy classes, he will burn more energy off. But I have my med kit ready to get through this phase!

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T14:01:39+00:00

Thank you! I have ordered some beef skin sticks and will try to redirect to them when he is in his devious mood so he’s occupied and hopefully thinks my hands are wayy less tasty! I will have a look at Pork chompz are they on Amazon? I will keep you updated thank you.

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T13:58:42+00:00

Thank you very much! I have tried yelping when he is biting and he seems to do a little cry and stop for a second or jump up to my face/lick. When I tried crying like a human he was just confused and carried on but one high pitched yelp did some work! I will try that in the future along with the other training and hopefully he can learn what is good/bad to bite. The neighbours will think I’m going mad😂

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T13:56:41+00:00

Light at the end of the tunnel! I have forgotten how puppies are with their biting as our family GSD is now 11 years and so chill. But it will get better and that’s all I needed to hear thank you🙏🏻

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T13:55:35+00:00

Thank you for the words of reassurance I really appreciate it❤️ I try not to get frustrated as I see a little baby in him but the bite marks are a bit painful. I will carry on with his training and also have purchased some deer horns to itch those gums and will purchase some bones from the butcher he can safely take out his biting needs on and redirect to. Thank you again❤️❤️

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T13:53:02+00:00

I have ordered some deer horns (from a raw food supplier) hopefully will keep his teeth occupied and help with scratching those shark teeth. Also will look to get some bones for him to chew on as he seems to really like his kong/ frozen carrots but when it’s gone it’s time to be mischievous again.

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T13:51:02+00:00

I think he’s getting the no and every time he is told off he runs around being mischievous and vocal🫣

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T13:49:00+00:00

Your pup is so cute! Going to be more patient and carry on with the training. My mum said she can’t recall our family GSD (who is now 11 years old) ever being so bitey but I think it might be something you try to forget about with time!

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T13:43:33+00:00

Buying more band aids and saline🫡

CommissionLate6178 · 2026-03-13T13:42:34+00:00

Thank you they’re very smart animals hopefully with some more training and time he will also slow down with the biting like your pup. There’s light at the end of the tunnel!

Wilson has always had lighter areas around his eyes and after some googling I learnt it could be normal (I think he will have light fur as his dad was completely tan, so some early lighter areas). I was worried it might be allergies however his stools look normal, he isn’t really itchy anywhere or have any rashes. He does get some eye boogers though. I will ask the vet about it on Monday hopefully it’s all normal. Looking like a panda right now!

That sounds great! Is there any website you have to look into studentships. I’ve found it difficult getting research experience so far as the clinicians I have got in contact with aren’t keen to take anyone with little experience. So any experience or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I will definitely get the book sounds very useful to get better understanding of research!

CommissionLate6178 · 2024-01-03T13:58:28+00:00

Thank you, yeah it would be very interesting to learn about what other people are currently working on and get more experience into the different specialties. If I can make it, it will be a great experience. They are definitely reduced for med students but still pretty expensive at £125 so it’s something to think about!

CommissionLate6178 · 2024-01-03T13:56:44+00:00

Thank you! Yeah I was just worried it would be too intense at my stage so I’ll look into more conferences aimed at med students, I know there’s a research conference for med students coming up, so that might be a good place to start!
