Question
i also forgot, she has tried to hump my arm three times and my dads. i looked into it and was thinkin it it signs of tryin to establosh dominance over us, rather than sexual, but she shows no other signs of dominance, she gets out our way, she les with her belly up, she gives us toys wen we take them, so i was wondering is the issue is dominance, and with everythin else i said i am hoping to get her to training classes soon, just a matter of fonding out when they are on, and when is she old enough for her first groom and nail trim thanks x

Answer
Yes this is her saying IM BOSS, when she bite you its also dominance. She know who will allow her to do her thing, you need to convince her that you are boss, without the need to tp her nose. Use your voice tone. I have 14 dogs and they know who is boss simply by listening to me.
when she does wrong put her in her crate for a few mins.

16 weeks for nail trim and groom from 12 weeks
