Having a little problem with... Sal nipping at people and other dog faces. We tell him No but he nipped me three times yesterday and once today. He has nipped Sherlock in the mouth today. Is this normal for little dogs?:animal-pa |
The only time Teddy "nips" is when he's trying to get my attention to play with him, and occasionally he'll nip at the cat for the same reason. I just tell him NO usually, but sometimes I have to give him a time out for him to calm down. I've heard that once they start nipping all the time its very hard to correct that behaviour so I tried to stop it right when it started. I'm sure some more experienced YTers will have more info for you. Good Luck! |
You need to give him a time out the second he does that!!! No matter how bad you feel you have to address the problem now!!! I use to use bitter apple spray around my hands with my friends Yorkie!!! |
Deiter nips Cozmo but on the feet, Only when they are playing hard. So I have to stop them and put in time out also. |
Thanks for the tip. I have a nipper, so I'll have to start putting him in time out. |
