Because his little sharp teeth hurt and leave puntures. We keep plenty of chew toys around. but he preferrs skin, lol. I put him in a porta crib, which he dosen't seem to mind. But I need any suggestions on how to stop this behavior. Can any one help me.

Biting puppy- when he/she bites place your finger sideway toward the back of his jaw and say "no bite" ...if he does it again repeat putting a bit of force at the back of the jaw and again "no bite"...if he does it during play do the above and walk away stopping all play and ignore him...he will soon learn this is unacceptable behavior!! it will work quickly if you are consistant...
By the way - Welcome!
