You must have missed the fact the puppy is 10 weeks old. Corrections are surely in order when a trained dog decides not to obey a command the dog knows.

How can a 10 week old puppy know anything? It hasn't been alive long enough!

You really suggest correcting a 10 week old puppy?

A 10 week old pup will get over excited and will then play rough. I am the one that walks my pup. DH plays and treats.Thunder knows that what we say goes. There is no conversation, just hands on hips and a stern look, (works most of the time). Again I will stress that BOTH OF YOU must engage in the training of this puppy. I personally don't crate anymore. Thunder when he gets tired of ppl will go to his room. But he is 9 month old. Don't expect to much from him at this age. Just like a newborn it will get better with time.
