oh good, i'm not the only one being used as a human chew toy. i swear i have so many other toys for him to chew, and he just goes for my fingers, and those sharp canines are starting to hurt! i tried saying "NO" and "NO BITE" but it seems like he'd stop for a split second, if that at all, and then continue. If I ignore him, he'll just try to chew on my clothes or my ankles instead. even when i give him something more appropriate to chew. he'll sniff it and then ignore and still go for my fingers instead. any other ideas?
so far, the only thing that would stop him from chewing on me is if i put him into his crate for a time out, or if i put bitter apple on my fingers. i'm not sure if that's really teaching him not to chew on my fingers. |
