Tinkerbell bit my 4 year old son yesterday over a bone. I did everything I thought I should do. I took the bone away, she tried to bite me. So I flipped her on her back, yelled at her no, waited for her to stop struggling then put her in her crate for a long time out. When I let her out she was so submissive and bashful, I felt bad. Today me and my son will be practicing taking the bone away from her and giving it back. I can not have her ever bite a child. Any other suggestions of what I should be doing? She is a little over 5 months now.
