Aw Janey, I understand completely; Molo used to dangle from my ankles, and wrecked loads of clothes this way
It sounds perfectly normal puppy behaviour, although it can be a bit of a shock to start with
I agree with Gill, too - pick a method of dealing with it that seems to work and use it consistantly; Molly will learn, eventually
My daughter was terrified of Molo's teeth when he was a pup (she was three!), she used to sit on the back of the sofa where he couldn't reach her
First of all I tried to keep them apart, but that didn't really work so eventually, I taught her how to "stand like a statue", and then let Molo into the room. when he approached her (standing competely still), I sat a small distance away and attracted Molo's attention with treats, toys and an excited voice
He came to me instead of her (she was still and boring, after all
). It took lots of repeats of this, and a few tears from everybody, but eventually he got the message and now they are the best of friends. I still don't leave them unsupervised though - and I would say for the first year, she tolerated, rather than enjoyed him, due to his over-exhuberance
