Like Chance said
Yelp when you want her to stop or yell No! or No Bite! Loud enough where she stops dead whatever she's doing
Then without saying another word leave her where ever she is
Do Not scold her or tell her she's being bad
Your talking with her will make her think you're continuing to paly with her |
I always say quite loudly and firmly no or no bite. Nothing stops her! The problem I have is that leaving her doesn't work so well, since she gets hyper when I let her into the family room for play time. It has carpet and we're still potty training so leaving her there is not really an option. That's why I usually lock her in her crate or put her in the gated kitchen for a few minutes when she's biting.

Well she hadn't been biting yet. She was biting me earlier so before I let her back into the family room I put the deodorant on my hands. She never bit me this time, just came and licked it off. (She had calmed down because of the previous time out.)
I appreciate all the suggestions though! I just feel like I've tried it all and nothing works.
