Well, the nose taps may not work if used only occasionally, but one evening Kacee and I had about a ten-minute session of it. I always sit on the floor to play with her and she would decide that chewing on me was better than playing with her trillion toys. Now, it is something that she'll test me on, but I raise my hand up and she'll back off and then we go ahead and play with the toys. I know she's only playing, but I can't allow her to do that. My mother lives with us and she's too elderly to have a yorkie hanging on her feet!
I remember Muffin and I went through a bit of that, but Muffin was more of a little girl, whereas, Kacee is our little tomboy. It's not something that I enjoy doing, but it was the only thing we tried that did work.
