The bitter apple and hairspray worked for saving my plants.. he didn't like the taste of those at all. (Never thought of using them on my hands). He finally got it... and stopped except for an occasional accidental nip.. but I found that I could not even allow him to lightly mouth my hand.. because then the biting would start getting harder again. He is 10 mo old now and we no longer have that problem.. so hang in there.. it does get better. |
thanks for giving me hope
i do have to remind myself that he is only a puppy still.
I think i actually have to work on my yelping. I know that sounds odd but the way I was yelping before made him think I was still playing with him.
