Enjoy her!!
FUNNY you should mention Her Badger holes....they are all over my back yard...of course there are NO badgers..only little moles...but she is bound and determined she WILL get one out of there sooner or later...what a mess this little girl can be...

ok..so let her be top dog, but how do I stop the constant jumping up AT me??? she has been here 2months now and is just over a year old..can I toss her on her backside and show her I am TOP dog now???
yes- hand at throat until she lowers her eyes. Works on big dogs as well. If you let her alpha you you are in for a world of hurt. I feel for poor Harley. I do NOT allow any alpha but me.
