My 15-week old puppy is biting my hands and toes. Sometimes he gets so crazed I can tell how hard it is for him to stop chewing. I give him a chew toy which he will chew for a few minutes then he is right back to my hands and sometimes he really digs in. I was putting him in his pen but my mother told me not to use it for punishment purposes because he won't want to go in there for sleeping, etc... Yesterday I spoke to the vet about it and she said to give a high-pitched puppy yip when he does it. She said this is the behavior they exhibit in litters that signals them that they are being too rough and to knock it off. I tried it last night and this morning and it works like a charm!! Hope it helps you, I know it is frustrating. |
