One added question: When you say you spray water, do you add vinegar or is it straight water?

@dawn27 - Yes, I took a peek at your website. I like it Look forward to reading it.

Replacing the biting with a chew toy is going to be rough especially when I'm outside. I'll think of something.

In addition to "no" and "no bite," teach her "down" when you catch her dragging on your pant leg. Does she walk on a leash? I would think leash training would also discourage that habit.

When Max was a pup, he would play bite my toes in the morning when we first got out of bed. I would tell him "no bite" and put him back in his xpen to make him stop. He quickly learned that if he wanted his freedom in the morning, he couldn't bite my toes.

I'm training Julie to walk on a leash. Help me out Maximo, how do you figure leash training would help? I don't understand. This sounds like negative reinforcement. I hear you. She knows the "down" word. I'll see about using that command during this time of biting.

I will train Julie with I've learned from your responses. Later, I'll report back and let you know how it's going.

Thank you.
