I'm new to raising a rottie puppy mine is an 8mo old male. So my experience and training is limited. I would say that this behavior needs to be stopped asap. I had to pull 3 items out of my dogs mouth in the time it took me to write the first sentance of this post. When he decides to get nosy and busy he can be a handful. He has only growled one time, when I went to take his marrow bone away. It shocked me at first, since he had never done this before, but I still took it away. I guess he could have bitten me, but I just grabbed it and said no in a firm voice, but I also did give it back to him shortly after, less than a min or so. I move his bones around all the time, he seems to want to chew his bones as they are leaning against my nice wood furniture. So he has gotten used to me taking them away, moving them to a new area for him to chew. I have not had any problems since, and I'm constantly pulling and removing yummy stuff from his mouth. I would say your dog needs more training on the "drop it command", as does mine. It has been a hard one for my guy to learn, and he is still working on it. My guess is this puppy is going through that stinky phase 7-13 mo. old where they test the owner to see what they can get away with. Dont let this dog push you around. You probably have a different situation so I'm not sure if I would recommend you just grab the bone, she may have some food agression issue starting. I will let the pro's tell you what you should do, or you might want to go back to your trainer for some one on one sessions dealing with this issue.
