 New here and questions about nipping
We have a 4month old morkie puppy and she is a very sweet and smart little girl but our problem is her nipping our hands and fingers everytime we want to pet her and lunging at our faces. She doesn't do either aggressively but we can't figure out how to curb this behavior. We do keep chew toys with us at all times so when she wants to chew the fingers we give her the toy but not sure it is working. But I have to say that the lunging like a cat at our noses is working the nerves. She hasnt nipped me yet, but has gotten my DH and DD's nose a few times luckily with no blood drawn. Usually when she does it I sternly say no and put her on the floor but of course will jump back on our laps. Any advise would be greatly appreciated |
