Molly is a biter, and I'm trying to be consistent with several of the hints I've gotten from the more knowledgable Yorkie moms (and dads?) on this board.

My question is this...Am I making her biting worse by playing tug of war with her? As most of you probably understand, at 5 months she has a LOT of energy. During our playtime in the evening she likes to play fetch and tug of war with a few of her toys. Is the tug of war encouraging her to bite?

Thanks!

Carla
