I agree with all of the above. Nipping - make sure he has plenty of appropriate options - toys, chews, etc. Continue to redirect him whenever he...
@Malka These came from a great book by Kristi Porter. These are actual statements from kids. I think that one mom is in for trouble - if her 3 year...
How to tell you're really old according to little kids: Old people have melty faces, so they just pretty much stay home with their dogs. Sydney E,...
