 I amy get roasted.... but here goes :-)
How old is Piper? If she is still a pup, then the biting is a play/exploratory activity and is expected with pups. All of my pups "teeth" on my fingers, they are allowed to nibble on hands and toes, when they get too rough, I simply move my hands or put shoes on.
Sadly enough, they outgrow this silly puppyhood state and become adults who only mouth me when we are playing. None of my adults are "ankle biters" except during play time when it is perfectly acceptable and they control the "bite".
You mention that you are home all day with Piper - how much time do you spend one on one with her playing games that SHE initiates and enjoys? |
