Hello everyone,
Maybe this question is too old, it's so hard to get it out of my mouth because I feel sort of embarrassed when I come to this.
My Dexter is exactly 8 weeks old. When I walk him, he's always biting my pants and pull in the opposition direction. Why's that? What does he want? I come to a stop, and he just sit there. Once I start to walk again, he then starts to bite me again.
Im sure this will be covered in the Ed's DVDs. I ordered two and they're right now on the way. Its still gonna take some more time. So right now anybody can give me an answer?

Thanks for your business.
Ed, I have 2 of your vids (8weeks-8months and basic obedience). I read that article you just suggested and I have a question:
How do you know your dog respects you?
I am training my first dog (4 weeks old).
This question is also directed to those other experienced trainers as well as Ed.

I'm pretty sure it was, Anne........... I had that same reaction, until I remembered that in a thread about eye contact recently, he said 4 MONTHS....... <img src="http://www.leerburg.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Also, he got her (I believe) at 8 weeks.

It's not impossible. I visited our local prfessional training center. The people there told me they start to train puppies when puppies are just about 4 or 5 weeks. And I saw that. But I think it should be with lots difficulties.

I don't know to what extent they're trained, but I'm fairly certain my friend in the Philippines starts his pups at 6wks old.
