How To Stop Puppy Biting
1. Talk like Mom: Since puppies tend to nip when they're acting childish, you can often stop them by acting
"motherish", which means giving a low, authoritative Grrrrrrrrrr. [Editor/Adam inserts: I don't do this. I just use the
'No!' command]. Dogs hear this sound a lot when they're puppies, especially when they're nursing and their teeth
start coming in. They take Mom's threats seriously, and memories of her warnings stay with them. Growls get their
attention and make them think twice about what they're doing.
2. Use an extension: Rather than letting dogs mouth your hands, it's better to use toys, towels, or ropes as
intermediaries. Anything that puts distance between your hands and their mouths will work better than
hand-to-hand or hand-to-mouth games.
3. Play at your level: Dogs love it when people get down on all fours and wrestle, head butt, and generally
roughhouse with them. Physical games are fun, but some dogs have a natural tendency to be dominant. Seeing a
person on all fours makes them think they're dealing with a dog-like equal, one whom it's perfectly acceptable to
bite. Dogs have a natural respect for height, however. Keeping your head and shoulders higher than your dog's
will help him understand that you're the one he needs to respect, not the one he's allowed to play-bite or nip.
4. When all else fails try using a good dog training program for advanced training lessons as your puppy
matures.
