             I know it just seems to be taking longer with her. At first she 
            wouldn't even act as she was hearing us. I know she can hear cause 
            she hears when I get treats out or I'm getting something to eat and 
            comes running for some. I think she's slowly getting I'm not going 
            to give in and stop. But I love her and won't be giving up on her so 
            she better just give up and learn.   lol  At least I know this is 
            normal. 
            Thanks

              Joy, 
              I'm going through a similar situation with a new guy of mine 
              that's 
              about 8 mos. old.  He thinks everything, no matter what is a game. 
              What I've been doing is yelling Ouch! everytime he bites me.  He's 
              learning not to bite so hard and soon (I think) he'll be done with 
              the biting altogether. 
              You have to remember that they're just children and you have to 
              teach 
              them proper behavior.  Just like real children it takes longer 
              with 
              some than others.  You trained your other 2 to your liking, you 
              can 
              do so again it just takes time. 
              Good luck, 
              Norm
