@Givemeallthewine - that sounds great about the clapping. We've taken our puppy out for this, too. She seems a bit bewildered, but not frightened.
@JosieJosie1 - sounds like you're making amazing progress :-)
How brilliant that you can do that with the neighbours.
@Windyatthebeach - your dogs look fantastic 
And a huge win that DPuppy will sleep next to the other dogs - hurrah!
Oh, and in response to an earlier post, I will take a picture of Chilli in her sling, I promise 
@Theoscargoesto - thank you so much for this. Exactly what I needed to hear this morning. Finding it a bit tricky, and worrying...
So, our news: finally managed to get first set of vaccines and microchipping done, which is a huge relief. Can't wait to give Chilli more freedom (still don't feel she can explore garden round edges, where I suspect foxes go, etc., and to have a date in a month's time when we can actually take her OUT feels amazing).
Bit worried about not being able to introduce her to other people, and young kids, but nothing we can do about that. She's still pretty bitey, and has some seriously mad times, so I've been scouring previous threads for tales of crazy puppies who've settled down into nice non-bitey dogs. I find the "ignore and walk away" advice quite unhelpful for some of the behaviour? How can you do that if they're grabbing your trousers (and some skin) and growling, and it actually hurts? Walking away makes it into a game. This morning, I clapped my hands loudly, which made her let go, and then immediately did some "sit" training (which she's good at), which seemed to calm her down, but the attention also feels like it's sort of rewarding her. Aaargh. Trying to give lots of positive attention too, and get some training in, but it's hard sometimes. First puppy, so it's all new. She's eating and sleeping well, though, and when not going crazy she's beyond lovely.
