| Animal behaviorist/trainer I would suggst an animal behaviorist and / or trainer. They can usually nip a problem like that in the bud, no pun intended. Under what circcumstances does she bite? |

| I enrooled Mocha in Obedance class and I purchased a spray called Directstop... It is a deterrent spray and its has a awful taste so when Mocha bites or does something I dont want her to do I spray her.. I sometimes can just grab the can and she'll stop!! Good luck and try to enroll her in kindergarten or obediance classes

| You need to know if it's nervous aggresion, or dominance aggresion or if it's play biting got out of hand. Sometimes it's easier to get a behaviourist to help determine what it is and how to stop it. If anyone is in danger a muzzle will help short term. |

| I wasn't sure if you'd just had your yorkie or had her from a pup? A lot can be done with nervous aggression for sure. You do need professional help - what is she like with other dogs? Is she biting you or just afraid and biting others? Ana xx |
