I feel for you! At one point I was potty training 2 puppies and a 3 year old at the same time and my mom struggled (like it was choking her) to not say "I told you so!" All I can say is now EVERYONE is potty trained (with an occassional accident here and there!) With persistance, viewing everyday as a new day to do better, a positive attitude and tons of praise it will all fall into place! As far as the biting thing goes, Louis (my 14 month old) did that all the time when we first got him (and it drove us nuts!) we would put him on the bed with us at night and instead of cuddling he would nip at our fingers! Hinds site is 20/20 because when we look back on that we realized when we got Paris he completely stopped! He wanted to play and we weren't playing his way! Now he knows bedtime is cuddle time but it's because he has played all day! So maybe get down on the floor and really play and maybe that will stop some of that! It will all pass! You are getting to know your furry friend and he is getting to know you...it takes some time! Wish you the best of luck! And hey! It's a new day! Anything is possible!!
