Hello, we have a 5 lb yorkie (Allie) that some people were getting rid of because of a divorce. She is 7 now and we have had her for almost 2 years. When we first got her she would bite every now and then. She actually bit me the first time I picked her up but figured she was just scared. We camp a lot and she loves going with us but I can't let anyone near her or she will bite them. She is very cute and tiny of course so everyone wants to pet her but she just bites at them. If anyone goes into our camper she bites at their feet the entire time they are in there. There is a couple that we camp with all the time and she is used to them now and doesn't bite at them so she is better once she gets used to you but I can't have her donig this. I've tried telling her no or no bit or tapping her on the nose and telling her no but nothing works. She is very lovable with our family and anyone she is familiar with. Help, I want everyone to be able to love her as we do.
