Weird behavior of my doberman

      My girl is 10 months old right now and she behaves well overall and shown no aggression except this problem that is bothering the family. She would suddenly bark at you and if you don’t give her the attention she would bite you. The problem can be triggered very easily, such as me walking down the stairs, and she will just start barking and jumping backward if i approach. However, when i turn away or ignoring her, she will start biting me. My solution so far is to hold her collar and make her sit to calm her down, but sometimes when i let go the collar she will be back where she was and the process starts again.
      My trainer said she wants to play but I don’t know. Anyone has this problem with their dobie and knows how to address the issue? I’ve shown my correction to her, but she doesn’t seem to improve. It happens everyday.
      And when we are in the backyard, she would also try to get my ankles and slippers. What can I do to improve the problems?

      Yes my Dobie did the same. Like he wants to play and gets sassy
      And nips. I’ve tried the Off command and Bitter Apple spray. He’s now a year and the best thing that works for him is the electronic collar. I just use a very light vibration setting and it works. Wish I had used it earlier. He pulled my shorts down once on a walk, lol.
