| Need Advise My daughter has a 6 month old male yorkie which constantly is "mouthing". She says he doesn't actually bite, but you can't pet, hold or play with him without him doing this. He's a rather hyper boy, not a cuddler. She had him neutered at 4 months and he attempted to hump her foot for the first time this week. Is this normal behavior? |

| As already posted it is very normal...every time I go to pet Jake ( he's 5 m.) he turns his head around & wants to gently bite I just keep removing my hand...I don't want to encourage this..keep giving him something else to gnaw on...the humping is normal also...annoying but normal..I just gently remove myself....a lot of this gets better w/ time & discouragement....he's just being a pup...
