Hi, I've got a ten week old saluki puppy, I've had her for almost two weeks, I also have a 4 yr old greyhound bitch, who I rescued, I know greys don't have puppy experience, with this in mind she's doing fantastic, my concern is at play time, greys have small paws with long claws, she keeps pawing the puppy to play, which is hurting pup, I know that the grey has reasonably short claws, but its a big concern of mine, how can I tell her off when she only wants to play? Advice please

Your puppy will learn to avoid the greyhounds paws

She is learning quickly lol the pup is a bit of a wimp just like greyhounds haha she makes it sound like she's really injured.

Thanks for your reply Gypsysmums.
