And if we yell at her she does this jump forward nip thing at the face...she is lucky she has not gotten my face yet because than she will have one mad mommy. Try this with yours... when he bites, roll him on to his back and place two of your fingers on either side of his neck(not tight obviously, just enough so that he cant get up) let him mellow out and when he calms down and when you want him to, let him up but dont talk to him too much. I found that this has started to work with Shea. I think it is a dominance thing. Good luck!
I will try that... And yes he does try to be the dominant one.. Thanks again.. oh and yes I did switch it gradually I am just wondering if I switched him to another flavor too fast??
