Biting I broke both my boys of biting along with some other bad habits, by keeping a rolled up small newspaper or magazine handy, kept a rubber band around it to keep it rolled up. When they would bite, or do something I did not want them to do, I would hit the paper either against the palm of my hand or the wall, or whatever was handy and say NO very firmly and then NO Biting! or whatever they were doing. It took a couple of weeks, but they stopped, also to divert them you can take one of their toys, like a tug rope, smear a little pnut butter on it and give it to them to chew on. |
