I have a 10 week old beagle mix puppy. And sometimes when she gets wound up she bites. And, though she IS playing, it is not playful biting. She starts growling and pushing her boundaries. We have tried everything we know to stop her from biting. From pinning her down, to growling back at her, telling her NO, ignoring her, and a handful of other things. She just gets wound up more and tries even harder. When she gets excited, she will jump at people's faces. She doesn't always bite, sometimes she kisses (which, i have also tried training her to do that instead of biting.) But, I can't have her diving at people's faces all the time. I try having company make her sit and lay down when they come in, and give her a treat.. but, she is too excited. And since she is adorable, so is the company. lol
She is obedient otherwise, she comes, sits, heels, lays down, and shakes. HELP. I don't want to get rid of her, but I don't know what to do about this biting. I can't afford professional training
