This is the 1st blog in the Life With a Lab series, featuring Ember. The intention of this series is to be used as a reference point as to what one can expect or do with their puppy at each stage of development. All puppies are individuals, so this should be used as a guideline and not a rulebook. To see all posts in this series, click here. For more posts on puppies, check out our Resources sections.

Hello all, this is my first post and wondered if anyone had any advice for me. Apologies if this has already been covered!! We brought home our 8 week old yellow lab last Saturday after having the most wonderful black lab who we lost suddenly in March aged only 6. We are struggling at the minute as he is being a nightmare with mouthing and puppy biting and it has got to the point where we can't even sit and watch tv in an evening as he is constantly jumping up at the sofa puppy biting it and any part of us he can get hold of. We push him down and tell him calmly NO, but that just seems to make him do it more and he then lunges again. We replace our body parts with one of his toys but he often just drops that and comes back for more. We have ended up just going to bed recently as we can take no more!! When we then put him in his crate he flops and goes straight to sleep so perhaps he is overtired but I don't want him to go to bed too early as he is up at 6am on the dot everyday anyway we also take him out in the night for the toilet The children age 12 are that scared of being round him they now avoid him!! He has someone with him all day and is played with so i'm hoping it is not boredom. I think I just need to know if this is normal or not or if there is something more we should be doing to try and help him get through this stage - and save our sanity!!

Now, try the same exercise but move to the side Repeat about 6 times. New puppies are so much fun! I know people say dont use puppy pads, I never did during the day only on a night time, I used to take him out every half hour or so and I never had to get up in the night with him, He was and still is a very good boy when he's asleep lol wish you luck that worked for me but just remember a puppy of 8 weeks cannot hold his bladder all night no matter how offten you take him out last thing at night. We are sure your puppy will ace this exercise! And this means getting that puppy outside to his toilet area, whenever his little bladder is getting full.

I wish I hadn't listened to them as once I had the crate they got into a routine.
