A few small things..

So I have a thirteen week old female fantastic dog. She is a thief, swipes everything shoes, clothes, towels you name it. She also doesnt like to give them back. I dont have as much an issue with her but my wife seems to be getting a little frustrated.

She also jumps on my daughter and mouths her occasionally, she is 4, its all playful in nature but this is a no no especially with my daughter. I dont play with her like that we dont wrestle or anything of that nature and this behavior isnt acceptible to me.

Now my question is do you normally correct your Canes and how do you go about it? This isnt my first dog, not even my first gurading breed but it is my first Cane.

I think one isssue is she isnt getting enough exercise on some days. I work nights and my wife works days. When I get home she comes out of the crate and we play for about an hour to 90 mins before its back to bed. On my off days she gets plenty of exercise walks, play and we like to go to the park to run.

Just looking for any ideas, does this seem like a bored behavior or is she just going through her puppy growth?

Thanks.

It sound s like she's a little bored I find when I don't play with him enough to help burn some of his energy off he get restless and sometimes misbehaves try redirecting him with some of his toys when he is jumping or mouthing your daughter
