| Biting problem I'm having a biting problem with my little girl. The other day my nephew was on the floor with her and he took his socks off and she loves socks. He was trying to take it away from her and she bit him and broke the skin, and it was bleeding. Yesterday I dropped the cap to a 2 liter of pop and she ran over and got it in her mouth. After I finally caught her she had her jaws locked so hard I couldn't open her mouth. Finally I got it out and she bit my thumb, broke the skin and it started bleeding. She is normally a nice dog and gets along with the children...but I don't know how to get her to stop biting like this. Because she'll bite my thumbs sometimes when I'm putting her away. ANy suggestions? |

| When you say no,use a low growling voice,or shriek and give her a fright.Then give no attention for a few minutes-ignore. Then initiate a game when you are ready and give lots of praise for appropriate mouthing.She will soon catch on.
