nobody should..it shouldn't even be considered for punishment, all it will achieve is negetive behavior from the puppy I tap her on the nose with my finger and say "NO". Seems to work for me.
thats all it should take. anyways, what is the puppy's name? i couldn't find it.
to some dogs thats a natural instinct. always make sure that the yard is always picked up of doggy poo. you dont want to attract flies. the puppy can get worms and other parasites from flies. but when you do catch her give the command "NO". if you find that you cant break her of that habit there are a few things you can buy from a pet shop to inlude in her feed that will end up in her poop that will make it taste extremly bad tasting and will deter her from eating it. but try that for a last resort.

Are you reading this Photo? Pay attention. MP knows the ways of the dog.
Photo, I use a newspaper when Rocky or Harley is doing something wrong. You do not have to hit them hard with it, it's the noise thatgets to them. All I have to do is reach for a news paper, or hit my own leg with it and they run.
Rocky is my Shepperd and he follows me everywere he checks on me in the middle of the night when I roll over in bed. He will not stay outside unless I am with him, he is very loyal. I can not close the bed room door or the bath room door he has a fit. When I close him out of a room he will nose the door or he will be sitting against the door when I open it. When I am wearing flip flops he steps on them when I raise my foot and about trips me, he walks that close. I understand I am the leader of the pack, you just get use to it. Mom allways laughs at me when I walk thru the room I will lead Rocky will be next then Harley then my niece Haley and nephew Alex, no lie..... thats when Haley and Alex is around. Look at Ragen as being your child, a young child will follow it's mother all day long..... I look at my dogs as being my kids, they can be just as bad has childern and they go thru thier terible 2s too
