Then, I picked him up and gave him a toy that he usually chews on. I tried this about 3 times and he got it and now he's not biting at all.

It was really hard to ignore him for 30 seconds though lol
This is GREAT! Thanks for sharing. Ferdinand is always trying to bite and those puppy teeth are sharp. I know he's just playing, but I wanted to find a way for it to stop. I'll have to start trying it tonight.
