If your puppy was taken from his mother too soon, he may not know proper "dog etiquette". they learn how hard to bite from playing with their littermates or their mothers.

when he bites a littermate too hard the other puppy will yelp and refuse to play.

My suggestion would be to yelp like a puppy would and push him away for a minute or two. Don't let him turn the pushing into a game, if necessary, leave the room and close the door for a short period of time.

Be consistent and you should have a well behaved puppy in no time.

If you have children that encourage the biting they must be instructed on what to do also.

Good Luck and let us know how it works out.
