| ok this might sound weird, but socks or no socks? Our pup, Brisket has a thing for socks, I have them on tonight, he bit my foot going for the sock. No socks, he just licks my feet when he walks by. so maybe it's that. also maybe just wants to get your attention?

| Your pup needs to learn "no". They should learn what "no" means when they are very young and should understand "no" clearly at ten months of age. Try a spray bottle with water if you are desperate. Try pennies in a can.

| Is she getting enough exercise? Take her for good long walks. Play with her until she's tired. A tired puppy is a good puppy.

I second that. If we walk before work, at lunchtime, after work and again before bed, the day/night goes a lot smoother.

| sometime she does it after walking but she just don't like to walk all the time since there are some other dogs up the way that brake at her. one of the 2 next to us when after her when she was 8 almost 9. I think it's been little over a month now since it happen. and she did yell I try to get her and yes she was on her lead that didn't stop the other dog to run after her. they just let there dogs just run around and the dog is a little bit bigger then mine. and it was hard to get mine up when it happen. so thats other reason we don't let her outside to much. but she does run around inside the house a lot and we play tug a war and other games |

| When Joel was younger I couldn't even wear socks because he would try to bite them, then he grew out of it. But he just started it again when he wants me to play with him, so I make sure obviously to not play and say no, and if he's just too hyper and not listening then it's a timeout. |

| My little Maverick loved to do that "feet biting" as a puppy. We starting spraying "bitter apple" on our feet and he stopped doing it. He is 4 now and will do it once in a while, but it isn't anything like it used to be. My 1 year old Remington has never done it. |
