This is a stage that puppies ALL go through. Bc you took this puppy from its Momma too young, this puppy doesn't have the opportunity to be corrected by the littermates and Momma....so you're pretty much stuck with riding this out to completion.

I would stop doing "time outs" - dogs have no idea that what you're doing is a "time out" and that it's supposed to equate with something they just did - they don't understand that.

Try getting a Bark Genie on Amazon and use that when there is biting - see if the sound interrupts and stops the behavior. Or, you could try a can of pennies...anything that's loud.
This too is excellent advice.
