Just got a 12 week old pup kind of dumped on me. Because she has a big bump on her jaw.
She is supper sweet, just a great puppy. But I noticed that when people get in her face,(like people like to do to puppies to get kisses) instead of getting exited, and giving kisses, she stiffens up, gets a stern look in the eyes, and then starts growling. And now I was just told that she snapped at a person when she was not with me. I have never delt with such a young pup with those issues. She does not do it to me, or the BF. Im not sure if I want to punish her, then she will associate people in her face with a punishment and might get worse. So what would you do? We are getting xrays done soon to see what the bump is. I had her at the Vet just for a check up, and all is good. The bump seems to be like a broken bone fused wrong, and then scar tissue over it. So any advice would be appreciated
