So I am not sure how to break my "boys" from doing this! Right now they both go on timeout! My son Troy goes to his room for 5 minutes and Tommy goes to his "room" (my bed) for 5 minutes! After they come off of their "Timeouts" they are right back at it playing! I would think though that since your baby is doing this to you only you could give him a prompt "timeout" where he can't have contact with you for a minute or two, that would probably drive him nuts but I think he'd get the point pretty quick beings he has been doing so well with his other training! Good Luck I am sure your baby will quit this behavior before my fur-baby and "skin" baby do!
Wobie bites when he's having fun, too. He doesn't break the skin or anything, but I have small bruises on my arms and hands from his nips when he's playing. I've just been doing the typical, telling him no, then ignoring him thing, but I think since yours seems to be a dominance issue, its much more serious. Sorry I'm not more help.
