Hi everybody!!!! I'm not sure where I should post this, but I have an almost 8 week old puppy, that is almost potty trained is already sitting and laying down on command , BUT, if you pick him up he growls and snaps at you! I've read that you should first correct then and if they persist to grab them under the ear on the neck till they submit. Is this the correct way to handle this? I've been doing this with him but it seems to be making him worse. Any suggestions? I have a 9 and a 3 year old and definitely need to get a handle on this. Thanks in advance for your time!!!

You need to speak with your "breeder" on how to handle these issues.

I wonder if he is in some kind of pain?
