Lexi my 6 month old yorkie would nip at my legs causing bruising and scratches. We went to puppy classes at Pet Smart and the trainer said to do the following. Keep Lexi on the leash even in the house. When she nips pull the leash away from you (which moves her away from my leg) and use your no word. Either no or a sound you use for no. I only had to do this for a couple of days and now she doesn't do it. She will walk along side of me. The leash thing is a pain but it works and its a small investment to correct this behavior. |
