BITING.
Nipping.
PROBLEM
The puppy bites members of the family, excluding or including the owner.
SOLUTION.
1. Distract or redirect the biting behaviour by playing with him.
2. Praise and treats if no biting.
3. Be careful not to react by screaming or beating. Just avert your eyes and not interact with the puppy.
4. When the puppy starts to bite, say firmly "No biting."
This may be sufficient.
5. If not, hold mouth with hand and spank mouth gently, say "No biting."
6. Never bite back. Not understand cause-effect relationship between biting and your pain.
7. When he bites, give him a Time-Out. Put in a room where you can keep an eye on him. About 60 seconds. Do not talk, look or touch him. Ignore his whining, making noises, barking.
7.1 Do not cuddle the puppy during or after Time-Out. If he does not bite anymore, reward with praises and treat. Within a week, the biting may stop.
Time-out, used correctly, works consistently and effectively provided no attention is given to the puppy during and after Time-Out period.
