i think it is a case of trying how far she can get she is coming to the age were she will be trying to find her status in the pack if you can do disipline without the smacking it will work much better as they respond to positive rather than negative, she has to learn that she is the 1 at the bottom of the pack and she will only get it with consistancy and firmness as said before reward all good behaviour and try to ignor the bad never let her have any food stuff until she has been told to have it even if you pretend to eat it first then leave it on the ground and say she can have it and i would stop all rough play with her now just do fetch and calm games as to much exitment can make her think she can win the game and then she is top dog again, ant dog will take advantage if aloud
