I've got 2, 7 week old Lab/Pointer puppies that won't shut the fuck up, they are fed and healthy - should I beat them or let them whine till they get worn out?

squirt them with water each time they whine? eventually they'll learn to stop.
i'm never really one to condone beating puppies though.

Club them like they are baby seals. Then sell them for their fur.

I don't have a water bottle, maybe I should get a remote shock collar.

Maybe a formal puppy beating poll? just kidding. Sometimes putting a cheap radio in their pen set at a low volume can sooth them.

eh don't beat them. When they whine, just pop them in the face, they will eventually learn. But don't beat them to nothing.

I've heard of putting clock in the pin.
http://www.dogstartraining.com/faq.html
How do I stop my puppy from crying in the crate at night? A: The ONLY way to stop the barking in the crate is to ignore it! It can be very difficult to do, but it is necessary. Anything you say to the puppy; good or bad, the pup is getting the attention he/she is craving, in turn, making the behavior worse. Once you have complete quiet, let the puppy out of the crate. In time, your puppy will learn that quiet is what gets him/her out.

If you're gonna hit them then slightly slap them on the back of the head. Never touch their noses otherwise that will up their sense of smell.

Hitting does absolutely nothing for training dogs except making them fearful of you, which doesn't make them do what you want.
Think the dog's natural instinct. Does the mother dog ever hit her puppies? Dog's want a pack leader, a pack leader does not show frustration or anger. Use the mentality that you are the dominant being and you will tolerate their whining. Like brainiac said, ignore them. But at that age, dogs are not capable of disciplinary action like you speak of. It's like spanking a baby....You just don't do it.

Should I mail deadly snakes to assholes that beat animals? Sounds like a good idea to me...
Beating your dog's will not shut them up and can easily land you in jail (especially if you go around discussing it with people), and popping their nose won't help either. They will never stop barking just because you pop their noses. When you pop their nose they do not associate that in any way with the barking.
Shock collars are more likely to work, but that is kind of cruel imo, but they're your dogs so I'm not going to try to keep you from it. (Also I'm not too sure about shock collars, this is why I say "more likely.") Try letting them out to get more exercise, that way they burn off more energy out of the pen and they'll be less likely to bark when its time for them to calm down.
But no matter what, they ARE only 7 weeks old, and they're naturally going to be very noisy, especially if they've just been separated from their mother. so you might just want to get some ear plugs and wait it out.

But yeah.... Your seriously a piece of shit if you use any hitting to discipline the puppies. It won't do a damn thing. They don't associate your hitting with what they're doing wrong. They will just wonder why is this dude hitting me.

that's a great idea, get a few extras for the neighborhood kids, with a shock collar and a busy thumb, you can have the kids and the dog trained to do your lawn

don't get caught beating them by someone like me. You would accomplish the goal of making me not be nice anymore and you would likely be getting a beating yourself.
this goes for old folks and kids, too.
Be careful, there are guys out there like me.

This thread makes me kind of sad.
You have two puppies. Babies. They're probably going to be spending the next 12 months, being rowdy, noisy, peeing on your floor from time to time and getting into your garbage.
They're PUPPIES. You don't want to take care of them maybe you should give them to someone that does. Apparently you've never had a puppy before. It's not for everyone.
