Ill do my best on him. Hope i succeed. Ehe.
Tell your sis that this is good practice for her as a future mother.

Wylie's mom's suggestion about yelping is a really good idea. When my two "bites" and I yell "OUIE!!!!!", they back off right away. Zoey used to nip at toes/heels while walking but that was her way of telling the humans, "stop, I'm not done with you yet!". Basically, she was trying to be the alpha.

Some furbutts are more stubborn than others but as long as you keep at it, they WILL definitely come around. And I'm not sure if I mentioned it before but it's NEVER too early to start training. If you can't use the treats you bought, how about using green peas?
