I grew up with sighthounds, so I rarely had to deal with barking. Myrrh is my first non sighthound dog, being a mix of everything under the sun. She's 11 weeks old and a real cutie. She's getting better with her play biting... except when I'm in the bedroom, trying to sleep. She launches herself at the bed and snaps at whatever she can get her teeth on. Feet, fingers, and on occasion, my, errr, chest. The play biting I can handle. It's the barking that annoys me, especially since I live in an apartment. She seems to initiate play biting only in the bedroom and tends to bark while doing it... at 3 am.
I would kennel her, but she screams when in it, so she is allowed in the bedroom with me. We're working on kennel training. It's a painfully slow process but she's getting better at being in it.
What am I doing wrong? Ideas? Suggestions? Will she grow out of the barking? (Please God, say yes, LOL!). She is a good dog. Just young
