It has tobe where she cant see anyone. Don't say anything else to her just "no no" and put her in. After 5 or 10 mins just let her out. If she goes right to it again do the same. over and over. Eventually she will associate biting with being removed and hopefully she will stop. You have to do it everytime. though and right away. When she does listen and not bite give her a big belly rub and kisses.We are doing that with Jess and her crazy barking when someone comes over. Its starting to pay off!
I love this solution! I have a similar problem but it is not as frequent. Gizmo does not like certain men and will randomly try to attack. I have started to be able to notice a change in behavior right before and try to remove him or at least tell the person not to get near.
