...stop bothering her? I have a girl dog, and the other pup was a boy dog. It wasn't really bad, it was just a quick snap, no real aggression, more annoyance. The puppy wouldn't leave her alone. He kept jumping on her, charging at her, basically annoying her like an out of control kid.

Then, she snapped at him (it was a light snap, but a snap nevertheless).

Is this acceptable to teach him to STOP IT (btw, he did NOT even stop bothering her after this) or is this a dangerous behavior?
