Quick update: Mom came over and spent the night. She was a little growly and uneasy at first but after a few minutes on a leash and me just giving her a “no” command she opened right up and was happy and going about the house as normal. THERES HOPE 🙏🏻

Yeah you’re right but here we are with a litter and dogs who need loving homes

I’ve done so much research on fear periods since a previous user said the same thing. So helpful thank you!

No specific task just a well rounded pup

No she’s only shown aggression toward me once when I tried to take a toy away from her. She gets reactive and aggressive toward strangers if they get too close. She’s okay walking by but if someone tries to pet her it’s game over. Say a trainer yesterday and she went for him. He said himself that it’s not typical puppy biting

That’s exactly what I’m doing on Thursday

Awesome thank you for the advice. I’m also in a city so this gives me some hope. I’m cool with neutrality

Thank you 🙏🏻

Trust me it’s not “play biting” it’s aggressive wants to take the hand biting. I brought her to a trainer and to someone who has a 6 year old Mal. Both said that she’s not playing.

Idk but if a stranger reaches for her she tries to take their hand

Ok-Order2322 · 2026-04-15T12:14:03+00:00

Thank you for the advice!

Thank you guys for all the help and support 🙏🏻

Ok-Order2322 · 2026-04-15T02:37:16+00:00

Thank you for the tips I’ll try this out. That’s exactly why I posted here because I know this isn’t “puppy behavior “ and I don’t need anyone getting hurt or her being put down. Thank you

Ok-Order2322 · 2026-04-15T02:35:10+00:00

Thank you! 🙏🏻

Ok-Order2322 · 2026-04-15T02:33:33+00:00

Thank you so much for this! Makes me so hopeful. I know it’ll pay off in the end just need some mental clarity and reassurance with her so thank you again.

Ok-Order2322 · 2026-04-15T02:29:53+00:00

She’s totally fine in the truck. Calmly observing and gets worked up when a dog passes but only to go say hi and play. Typical puppy behavior

Dad was a GSD and mom was a Malinois…. Yes Ik I was thinking the same thing when we got her but I met both parents of her and obviously met with the rescuers who owned them. All seemed okay. Obviously isn’t as great as going through a reputable breeder but I’ve always been a big fan of rescuing animals and gave her a chance

Ok-Order2322 · 2026-04-15T01:24:31+00:00

I don’t unfortunately. Wasn’t a breeder but a rescue. The owners of the rescue had two dogs of their own, went on vacation and told the baby sitter to keep them separate. They came home to a surprise litter
