Poppy was taken away from her Mum at around 5 weeks and we got her about 6 weeks.
She is currently going through a stage of biting the rug ALL the time!! When playing she snaps and bites at us but to be honest I think it's just excitement/sore teeth.
We have all started yelping like a dog and pulling our hands or whatever away, or letting whatever she bites go limp and she lowers her head knowing she has done wrong.
She is slowly learning not to bite as hard...you may look/sound like an idiot yelping all the time but it's worth a try! I also read somewhere if they are biting when walking etc to stop moving until they stop then praise aparantly its the movement they think you are playing. |
