We've had this problem with our puppy since we got him. He is 7 months old now. I don't think he bites trying to hurt, it's like he does this instead of licking. We've tried saying NO BITING! Giving him a toy, squirting him with a spray water bottle, and yelling ouch. None of it seems to work. He'll jump on the couch and it's like my hand is a magnet to his teeth. At first we thought maybe it was because he was teething but now we don't know what to do... And it hurts! |
My yorkie is a bit older (3yrs), but he still bites. It is mainly when he is let out of the kennel or let in from outside. When this happens he jumps up and nips our fingers or butt. The only other time he regularly does this is when someone comes to our front door. It is not full proof but when we let him out of the kennel we just start reminding him to not jump or bite (just saying it repeatedly). As for the front door, we let him have his moment to 'protect' the house then we back him down so that he is 5-6 ft from the door. Being sure to stay in between him and the quest. This works more often than not. |
Try Growling.... these little pups don't understand anything but.... so be the Momma Dog and growl... you will be amazed at how quickly this works. Then, reinforce with English, or any language...:D I don't think this will work for older dogs.... one may get bit as an older dog may interpret a growl as an assault .... |
