My puppy will NOT stop biting?

alright my puppy is 6 months old. shes a papillon and all her puppy teeth are gone. she has all adult teeth now maybe 1 or 2 still growing in. she bites as if its a fun game. if i get down on the floor to play with her she immediately goes to bite my hands. if shes in a hyper-ish mode she will bite. she only bites me and my mom but not guests or people she meets for the first time. i really want a non-harmful effective way to teach my puppy that biting hurts me. btw me and my mom think that our puppy thinks that our hands arent connected to us. she wont bite our face but shell bite everything else. so please SAVEEE MEEE

My puppy will NOT stop biting?
Take two fingers and poke her and at the same time say shh.
Reply:i slap my dog everytime he does it really


hard. but if hes just playin then who cares big


deal cant hurt that much.


or just get him a toy to bite
Reply:Before you go to play with her put either Bitter Apple or the glunk for kids who thumbsuck on your hands then let her find out they taste terrible. Reputable breeders routinely use Bitter Apple on hands and shoes to teach wee pups not to bite either.
Reply:Yelp loudly (like a dog would) when she does this and tell her "no" in a firm voice while gently shaking her by the nape of the neck. Be consistent. You may have to do this several times, but she will eventually get it.





Now is the time she will be learning the rules about living with people.
Reply:My pugs used to do the same thing. They grew out of it a bit and now instead of "biting" they... "mouth" I suppose. They grab hands in their mouth and just hold, not hard though.





When they were still biting we told the vet about it, she says you have to "gag" them so they learn biting leads to something unpleasant. Basically you just press down on her tongue with your fingers while they're in her mouth. Make sure to say "no!" firmly but not angrily (you don't want to scold for the playing).





Good luck with your puppy!
Reply:all puppies do this; mine did.. i still have a small scar on one of my knuckles from where her tooth cut me.





Now she wont bite, even if you stick your fingers/hand in her mouth.





What we did, was, if she ever bit someone, or tried to, we would take her mouth, and hold it shut, and so "NO", and after awhile of doing that sher learned to never put her teeth on anyone. Worked like a charm. ( i think this was something the puppy training instructor told us to try).





good luck, i have a feeling it will work if you try it
Reply:buy the sour apple stuff or one of those rope tugging toys for her
Reply:grab her jaw when she does it. thats what i do to my pug, she hates it but it doesnt hurt her and she seems to get the idea not to bite right then and there.
Reply:give the dog a play toy let him know the differece between biting your hands and the toy
Reply:by getting down on the floor with her when she is biting is giving her the green lite 2 bite..but i will share with you some pearls of wisdom that i wish would get me 10 points for best answer as i reckon there tiptop..put some of the dogs toys in the freezer over nite so in the morning when he has them they are icy cold and in turn will cool her gums and vice versa..put some toys 2 freeze during the day so she has something cold at nite should her gums hurt..also giving ice pops will help as well ....aaah ickle puppy xx ps GABBY HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO B SLAPPED REALLY HARD ..LET SOMEONE DO IT TO U EACH TIME U DO SOMETHING WRONG,,U FOOL
Reply:kick the living **** out of it.
Reply:I don't know if it's too late to do this, but you might want to yelp and show that it hurts when you bite. That's how puppies learn from their litter mates. As soon as she bites, yelp like it hurts alot.


Another suggestion is as soon as she starts biting, ignore her (meaning get up from playing w/ her on the floor and even leave the room). Then she might get the message that its not acceptable. You have to be consistent about it or else it won't work.
Reply:Grab her snout and squeeze it till she whimpers..this is what the mother would do if the pup bit her too hard. Give it a try..
Reply:Take a soda can or any can really and wash it out. Then take some pennies 5 to 6 and put them in the can. You now have a penny can. Keep it with you and when she goes to bite you shake it. She will stop! Then give her a chew toy and walk away. When she is chewing the chew toy just tell her she's a good dog. You always want to turn a negative into a positive! The penny can is also good to stop excessive barking. Have a good one;~)
Reply:Technique #1 – yelp and walk away:





Puppies are very social creatures and refusing to engage in play can be an effective training technique. As soon as puppy starts to bite or nip, give a loud, yelping OUCH!!! Glare at the pup, get up and move away. After a minute or so, get a toy and return to puppy. Encourage the puppy to play with the toy. If he goes for you with a nip, repeat yelping and walking away.





Technique #2 – shake can:





If puppy does not respond to a verbal command only, try a shake can. Get an empty and clean soda can and place about 10 pennies in it. Tape the mouth shut. When your pup starts to nip, give the verbal command and at the same time give the can a good shake or drop it next to puppy (not on him please). This will help reinforce the verbal command. As soon as he stops, praise and give him a good toy to chew.





Technique #3 – shake down:





If Techniques 1 and 2 fail, then try this. I am not as fond of it as it involves physically grabbing the pup for reinforcing the "No Bite!". Start with a loud yelping OUCH; at the same time as you grasp the loose skin on puppy's neck. Give a firm scruff but not a shake and firmly say "NO BITE!" Do not pull puppy up and away, just scruff him. Release puppy and get him involved with a good toy. After a while, stop the scruff and just use the verbal.
Reply:Well I know alot about dogs, so heres the things about young ones. THEY LOVE ATTENTION!!!!! This means good or bad, so when they bite and you scold they are still getting attention. What you have to do is play with her, put a toy in her mouth before you play, if she bites you simply get up and leave her in a room alone. She will not get attention when she bites. Try to teach her that it hurts when she bites you, she will sooner or later get so tired of being alone that she will catch on. Another way would be to use a news paper or a flat pice of wood, (not on her) on furniture or the floor. If she bties you then loudly smack the the floor, this scares most dogs, then get up and leave. This is like traning her to be more careful.
Reply:i was always told you need to put your hand out palm up before you touch a dog...they see it less threatening....all the dogs i have had i did this too and never had a problem once the puppy matures...however, if this doesn't work you may need to be a little more forceful with your dog...grab its snout and say very firmly...BAD DOG....after doing this several times your dog will stop biting you...you need to be persistent.
Reply:Yelp loudly (like a dog would) when she does this and tell her "no" in a firm voice. Also you can warp a blanket around your hands and arms even when she bites the blanket tell her "no" firmly.
Reply:Your puppy is showing dominance, and you as pack leader need to "speak" dog and stop this behavior immediately to avoid bigger problems when she's older. It sounds like she very much likes to play, so, to show her that you do not like the biting, you have to stop playing the second she does it. Dogs do not connect actions from 5 minutes ago to a punishment right now, you have to correct bad behavior IMMIDIATELY.


When your playing and she bites, say NO loudly, then cross your arms (to hide hands) and turn your back to her. You may want to sit in the floor to do this, since you'll have to turn away a few times. Also, DO NOT talk to her during correction. After a couple of minutes, play with her again. NOTE: she will bite again. REPEAT CORRECTION. She has to learn that biting leads to no attention, and as soon as she does, she'll stop. You will have to correct her repeatedly, immidiately, and without fail EVERY SINGLE TIME she bites-- but she should show a difference in biting in about a week. Good luck.
Reply:pu your hand around his mouth and say no
Reply:Bite him back! Im kidding, his still a baby and his probably teething, so anything he comes into contact with he will bite on. He will stop with his bitting once he has his adult teeth, get him chewy toys to chew on in the meantime.
