Yoshi would love to chew on hands and feet too when I first got him. He has only very recently started to not do it, and I have only seen him go after hands once in the past week when he got a little overexcited with a stranger. The thing that worked best with me is when we were playing or anything if he started chewing on my hands I would put him in a timeout in his crate for 30 seconds, then let him out. The if he did it again he'd go right back in for another minute w/ me sitting there ignoring him. By the 4th or 5th time of doing that and saying "no bite" as soon as he put his teeth on me, he seemed to get the idea a liiiiiiiiiittle better. It seems that time has had the greatest impact so far, and I hope it does for you too.
