Hunter is 8 weeks old. When I have him out for play sometimes he gets real mean when I try to hold on to him. He growls at me and trys to bite my hand. He does this until I let him down. I have tryed holding him until he stops but that hasn't worked. When he bites at my hand I tell him no bite and try to pet him but he still bites at my hand so I let him get my finger and tell him no bite while I put my other finger on his nose and pinch to try and get him to let go but that does not work either he just keeps holding on. What do I need to do? I don't want him growing up to be mean. How do I get him past this?
