THIS IS EXACTLY HOW MY YORKIE IS!!
she's 3 months now.. but she's definitely a biter. she would chase after my feet and bite it. .(and yes.. it is starting to hurt). i've tried using the ouch method but it doesnt work she would just ignore it.

last week i brought her to training class at petsmart, and the trainer told us when she's behaving bad (ie. biting) u can do 2 things.

1. leash her and pull her into a dark room with no windows and leave her there for 10 seconds. while pulling her into the room u must also ignore her.

or

2. spray water in her ear or on her nose

i've been using the spray method cause it's easier.. and it's working. and when i spray i would also add "UH UH" (supposed to mean no..) and now when i say that word she backs away.

hope this helps.
