Bringing home a new puppy is a great experience for the whole family. However, many families are not prepared for the amount of bites they will get as they play with their puppy. Sometimes a puppy will bite so hard that children avoid playing with him.
Here are some tips that will help you teach your puppy that you don't want him to bite.
2. Your Puppy will want to play with you in the same way it plays with other puppies.
Your puppy will not understand that you do not want to play with them in the way another puppy will play with them. Your puppy needs to be taught how to use their mouth appropriately when playing with you or other people.
It is important to get the timing right with this training. As soon as the puppy starts biting, you should sharply say no (or another marker word). Then pause for a short time and offer the diversion.
