When I roll him on his side he gets still for a few seconds but as soon as I release him he starts again.
This outdated and cruel.
You have a baby puppy...why would you do this?
It's not working is it?? There is a more kind, gentle way...a way to show them what you want without, rolling, pinching, scruffing and saying "NO".

Get into a positive puppy class and stop watching the Dog Whisperer.

I've noticed that he's stopped the rolling and pinning now...there is no need for it...and to be doing this to a puppy is awful.
