We got our Yorkie VERY early. She too does some 'nipping' and 'chewing' but for the most part is a loveable little thing. I keep a puppy chew toy with my at all times and if Bella does her biting thing on one of the family members, I say no in a firm voice and give her the chew toy instead.
(We had to use this same trick with our BIG dogs when they were puppies. My Rhodesian Ridgeback would hang off the back of my sons diaper hanging from it while he ran screaming. She used my son as her favorite chewie, until we got her MANY chew toys and bones......she soon forgot about my son. LOL |
