Stepping on PUPPY TEETH!
yeah, those sharp lil SOB's are fun to step on, especially when they are embedded in carpet and point straight up!

I picked up 3 of them yesterday, 2 the day before.

On the other hand, if any of you want to rob my place, now is probably the time to do it. My 5mo German Shepherd will probably gum you! When she drinks, the water just kinda goes all over... Kinda weird seeing a Shepherd with no canine teeth, just little nubs.

Training is progressing well. The whole "come/sit/stay/lay down" she picked up on quickly. We're working on the whole "excited pee" thing... (I know, ignore the dog... There's a whole lot more to it. It's all behavior not bladder control/infection") She just lets go whenever one of my kids give her any type of attention.

She recently figured out that there's ceiling fans in the house. 3 of them.... They've been in the house well before she got here, and they've been used over the summer. It's not like it's a surprise. Barks/growls at the fans... Strange dog.

The dog also kinda messes with just me... She's great with the Mrs. and the kids. Me, on the other hand; I broke my right little toe (again). This damn dog and stepped on or sat on or laid on my right foot every damn time she possibly can. I've paid attention to this, she hasn't touched my left foot at all. But Boy-O-Boy does she know where the right little toe is!

So far, she's a great addition to the family. We put our last German Shepard down about 3 years ago. No matter what, THAT DOG was my buddy! And I still miss her. Her collar still hangs by the back door. It was time for another dog, and we're pretty stuck on German Shepards. Did a little research and found this goof, brought her home at 8 weeks. So far, it's going great.

One of these days I need to find a photo hosting site. Pictures of the mutt and a few other things.

Try a pair of Barbie doll boobies barefoot at 3:00am. Wakes you right up.

I know what you are going through. When my kids were young I broke two toes when I stepped on legos in the carpet.
Right now we have a 4 month old German Shepard. Gets excited to see you and pees on the floor.

Wait till your baseboards become the knawing tool of choice.

Try one of these for size:

Jesus Pyker…that is a modern day caltrop.

UK standard fused 3 pin plug. Great fun in the dark with bare feet.

The recurring ones out here are goat heads. I just pulled one out of my foot the other day that went in about a quarter inch.

I have most of my oldest Basset Hound's baby teeth in an old film cannister (he lost them back in 1998, back when digital photography was still a sci-fi concept). Yes, they hurt. But, here we are 23 years later, and I still have them. . .

I stepped barefoot on a bumblebee when I was a child. I think bumblebees offer competition.

One of my dogs leaves his Kong balls laying in random places when we go to bed at night. I've lost track of the number of times I've got up in the night to pee and stepped on one of them. Like stepping on a huge ball bearing - not sharp, but good for making your feet go out from under you.

OP - I lost my German Shepherd 10 years ago, and I still miss her a lot. She was a GREAT dog.

Ooouch! That would hurt!

I never found any of my pups puppy teeth, I found a part of one(?), but never found a whole one.

My puppy is just getting ready to turn 1 year old this coming Sunday. She is so smart, but her training has slowed down, not her fault, it's just I have been so busy with work.

So, the little time we have, I use as a training opportunity. Every opportunity I can find I use as a training opportunity.

She has been a great pup! She makes me proud every time we go out and people commit on her.

After stepping on a dog bone with a sharp edge at 5AM I learned to clear a path from the bedroom to the kitchen before going to bed.

If I tried to do that my cats would move something into the path. I just don't go barefoot in the house.

A d4.
Heck you can get a whole bag full of them.

Don't know about puppy teeth, but if I kick that damn wrought iron coffee table barefoot in the middle of the night again... And when this inevitably happens at 2am, I can't engage in the loud expletive laced rant necessary to vocalize my hatred for that [blanking] table!

uh excuse me

YOU DIDN"T POST ANY PICTURES OF YOUR PUPPY

Sounds like a great dog, in the making. Our Shepherd is a pistol. If I had to pick an actual pistol she resembles it would be along the lines of a short barreled AK, with a 30+ round mag, no suppressor.

She’s 6.5 now. I think the ‘biting’ stage is next(for you). Oh, it’s just playful biting & ‘raking’.
