That helped her a lot but she also had to take him to dogie day care because he needed to be excercises more and that allowed him to burn off a lot of energy. |
That sounds terrilbe. The object is to correct the behavior, not to punish the dog. If the puppy is biting there is a much bigger problem. The biting is the symptom, not the problem.
You can correct the biting but the problem of disrespect will still be there and manifest itself in other ways.
