We learned this lesson the hard way. When Kimbo came home, my 15 and 11 year old sons thought it was so fun to play fight with him. That is until a few weeks went by and his bite started to hurt on their ears and toes. from day one, I never let him bite me (because I'm a fraidy cat) and instead would keep a toy near to re-direct him. All of a sudden my boys were demanding to know why Kimbo wouldn't try to bite me, but all he had to do was smell them coming and would go into baby Kujo mode! He learned that biting them was fun. Now, the boys know that play can never include biting. Kimbo eventually got the hint. When he would start attacking, they told him NO, got up on the couch, and ignored him. |
