Saying "no bite" and squirting with water works really well with my Yorkie. He doesn't like being squirted with water at all.

Now all I have to do is say "no bite" in a harsh tone and hold the squirt bottle in my hand. He is really getting the message.

By the way, I tried all the other methods to keep him from biting...nothing worked until the squirt bottle.

I don't mess with him when he is eating or chewing on his nylabone. But if he has something in his mouth that is not puppy approved, I am very stern with him and say "drop it!" If he doesn't drop it, then I get the squirt bottle out.

You have to find out what works and be consistant with it.

Good luck.
