Yesterday she had some dooooooozy tantrums in the playpen after I did this. It reminded me of Super Nanny and the naughty spot. She flayled, whined, then took her giant bear out of her crate got on top of her crate and attempted to toss the bear over the edge. Then she shredded her newspapers pretending to dig and kept looking to see if I would react. |
I'm so sorry, but I am LMAO at your description! I'm just imagining her eyes glowing red as the demon in her takes over.
You said that the Ouch and No isn't working anymore. Instead of this, yell "YIP" in a really loud and really high pitched voice when she bites too hard and jerk your hand away. Give her back your hand. She should lick it to say that she is sorry for biting so hard. If she doesn't and instead bites too hard again, do the "YIP" again and then jerk your hand away and walk away from her. You should see a real difference in a couple of days.
Also work on the dominance issue like another poster suggested. Flip her on her back and hold her there until she stops struggling. I usually keep them on their back until I can count to five without them struggling. Do it a couple of times a day.
Good luck! She may have a little demon in her but it sure is a cute one!
