| Nilla's a biter. Nilla is a mixed bag of puppy emotions. When she sees someone, she's very happy and wants to jump on their leg and play, but she's also a big biter. I think she wants to play, but she's got these sharp little puppy teeth and doesn't want to let go. I've read it's not acceptable to tap them on the nose anymore or to put them in their pen when they're misbehaving, so I will yell, "NO" or "NO BITE" at her, remove my hands then try to pet her after, or try to cry or whimper like a puppy, and she still tries to bite me. I've even tried to kind of lightly pull on the back of her neck like a mother dog would, but I feel like there's not much or any improvement. I feel like maybe she just doesn't like me, ... and I don't really know how to discipline her if she won't listen.
Advice?
