I LOVE HER A LOT, SHE IS MY DAUGHTER, AND I TREAT HER LIKE A HUMAN, WHEN SHE GETS OUT OF CONTROL WITH HER BITING, I IGNORE HER ALSO, PUT HER IN HER CRATE AND TELL HER SHE WONT GET OUT UNTIL SHE BEHAVES. I JUST SAY "NO". AND AMAZINGLY, SHE WILL CALM DOWN AND FINALLY GET THE MESSAGE. I HAVENT HAD A DOG SINCE I WAS 8 OR NINE YEARS OLD BUT LET ME TELL YOU, THIS IS AN EXPERIENCE OF A LIFETIME FOR ME. A GOOD ONE, AND I LOVE TAKING CARE OF HER. I BETTER GO DOWNSTAIRS, AND SEE IF SHE HAS GOTTEN INTO ANY MISCHIEF. HAVE A GOOD ONE! AND PUPPY, TOO! RONTISS1

you might want to rethink putting her in her crate when she bites... her crate should be somehere she wants to go (should you need to put her in the car and bring her somewhere, or if you go out for a few hours) not somewhere that she thinks she is being punished. she will associate going in there with being bad and will start to hate the crate. When Layla was little i would yelp at her and if this didn't work i'd flip her on her back (a dominance thing) and look her in the eyes and say NO... she doens't bite at all anymore.. my dad will try and get her to bite when they "play" but she just mouths him.. it is too cute good luck
