[quote=Anonymous]Is someone actively training the puppy? Is your puppy getting lots of physical and mental exercise? The injury aside, all the behavior is normal. Puppies need to be taught and tired out whether you keep him or find a different home, these are crucial weeks to train good behavior! If you're avoiding the puppy, hopefully another adult is doing the right things.

I have a permanent knee injury from when our 10 year old dog was a puppy and knocked me down. I went through surgery and physio and still have extreme pain. I can't do some of my loved activities anymore. I never held resentment to the puppy, I learned to be overly careful and it is what it is. Actually my adult daughter broke her arm in 2 places when her young dog pulled the leash and she slipped hard on ice. It caused extreme hardship on her work for a long time, but she loves her dog.

Mouthing, chewing, chasing, jumping, etc. is all normal for puppies. Maybe you have a lab or retriever type and it would be extremely normal lol!

Things happen, speak to your therapist about your feelings on this. You will have other disappointments in life.  [/quote]
