Default Am I doing everything correctly?

I am a new owner of a 4 month old GSD. I've had her since she was a puppy. During these couple of months I have corrected bad behavior and showed her good behavior. For instance, potty training. I try to show her that I will protect her, & love her unconditionally! She is in training in matter of fact she knows every basic command but stay. Therefore, she is extremely intelligent & loyal! I walk her everyday, & let her socialize with new sounds & people. Although, she is a jealous dog & does NOT want any other dog around me! LOL She is funny to watch, but am I doing anything wrong?

You have not given us any information specific enough to know if you're doing anything "wrong"...

Usually, when you're worried about doing everything right, it's a good sign. :-) While it wasn't very specific, it seems that you're putting a lot of thought into the way you handle your puppy, and that to me is a very good sign.

dogs dont necessarily get "jealous"..you obviously are doing something wrong however with training and patience you can correct that behavior!..as the Alpha Leader you should let your dog know you can bring any dog around whenever you want! goodluck!!

She is only 16 weeks old, she is still a baby. She is not going to know everything & she is still the youngest dog at my house so she is use to receiving all the attention. Also, I just wanted to touch upon a few main ideas instead of going into detail because numerous amounts of people does not like to read a lot.
