[Dailydrool] Rough Housing Question

[bassetmom at frontiernet.net]

Hi All,

Rosie, our 2 year old basset, and Toby, our 11 wk old basset pup, have  
started rough housing like crazy.  They have their mouths open biting  
at each other and are growling at each other while tumbling over each  
other.

Rosie is very gentle and doesn't bite the puppy...but he is biting  
her.  He tried biting our old spaniel and she told him off and he  
leaves her alone.

But, Rosie really wants to play...so is it good for them to play like  
this??  She seems to be putting up with too much biting from the  
little guy.  I don't know how much to interfere.

What do you think??

Sarah,

Basset mom to Rosie, Toby & Obie (ATB)
