I picked her up growled and bit her back. My friend thought I was crazy but it worked.
She learned that day I'm alpha on walks.

It took many hours to totally train her and she is sweet and wonderful now at 14 months old.

Interesting! I ran into the biting issue 30 years ago when my youngest daughter continually bit her sister. One day I'd had enough and held the youngest's arm and made her sister bite her. It worked!! No more biting. It did not occur to me to use children's training techniques on dogs. Thank you for your post.
