Remember always that preventing bad habits is easier than fixing them. No matter how bratty he is, no matter how tired you are, always reward your puppy for doing it right. If you find you're not getting through in training him, find a trainer and get help before it's too late. Make good manners a part of his regimen from the beginning. He's a baby, and he's counting on you to help him learn.
Anger never accomplishes anything.
Puppyhood is a special time, and it's over all too fast. Investing time now pays off in a lifetime of love, and that's the best holiday gift of all. Inc.
