To stop your puppy from biting, you should start to train it at an early age. The training may take a while, but is no different from any other training. Though it may seem cute when your puppy bites, it can become a serious problem later when your dog is an adult, so it is important to discourage biting as much as possible.
To start, make sure your puppy knows that when it bites you, it hurts. When the puppy bites, let him know with a No or imitating another puppy by yelping. If your puppy repeats the biting shortly after this, repeat what you said to him and leave him alone for a few minutes. This usually sends the message to your puppy that it was playing to rough.
Also, allow your puppy to play with other dogs for it learn the difference between people and other dogs’ tolerance. Taking your puppy to obedience school is a good way to go at the age of six months or so.
Just remember- puppy biting may seem cute, but you don’t want a stronger, larger dog, biting people for real later in life do you? Stop it while you can!
