I have a little guy named Gunther - he is so adorable and only 2 lbs 12 oz at 17 weeks. I've had him for 7 weeks and have concentrated almost all of my training efforts on housetraining. I have worked on obediance as well and we go to puppy class omce a week. I have two other dogs - a GIANT Maltese and a 90 lb Black-and-Tan Coon Hound. They are all males and Gunther gets along real well with the coon hound. They are so cute together!! He's still working on winning over the maltese. I have faith...

Anyway, Gunther is by far the hardest I've had to housetrain, but we've made real progress. I need to know how to handle his biting. We may be playing with toy or a ball or just sleeping and he'll start nipping and it escalates from there. I've tried to ignore it, but it gets too painful

Any Suggestions??? Thanks!!!
