My mom's female Shih Tzu and dad's male Corgi Chihuahua have recently started snapping at our 7 month old Pug Chihuahua Dachshund mix puppy. How do my parents and I correct their behavior toward my puppy?

It seems that the older dogs have been forced to accept the puppy's behavior and now they are angry.
- You are going to have to intervene when necessary.
- Each time the puppy starts to bother one of the other dog, you need to correct this problem.
- Puppies love to play and that means with the older dogs in your home. Therefore, when a puppy is allowed to play and treat the other dogs badly they will start to snap at the puppy.
- You need to teach your puppy his place in your home.
- If you see the puppy climbing on one of the other dog, you need to stop this.
- Show the older dogs that you can take care of and handle the bad behavior of the puppy.
- Once the older dogs see this that should stop them from snapping at the puppy so much.
- You puppy needs to learn their place in your home.
- Make sure your puppy has plenty of toys to play with and encourage him to play with these toys and not the older dogs.
