it bit me

try taking it's food away and then feed it by hand every day. this is true for all animals. did you ever hear the saying "Don't bite the hand that feeds you?" this is from the reality that an animal will not do this..though many stupid people will...

In order to answer the question in a helpful way, what was going on when the dog bit you? Were you playing and the dog just got too rough, disciplining the dog, feeding the dog, was there a lot of noise or excitement, different people around, and was the dog upset? Did the dog bite on purpose or accident? Also, as a comment, there are a lot of sick people answering these questions that I hope never own a dog!

Take your dog to classes. Get a training book, read it, and apply it. You can go the clicker (positive training) method or the corrective method. I got you started on your research. Both the sites provided are excellent. I am a clicker trainer and I prefer it, but I understand some people would rather go with corrections.

here are some tips. make sure that you don't disturb them when it is sleeping. try not to touch the tail of the dog coz they hate that. never disturb them when they are eating. hope that will help. if you discipline your dog by hitting, don't do that just say in a loud voice "NO!" coz they might retaliate. ask your vet. there are some dogs that really have something wrong neurologically so make sure that they don't have a "crazy" gene in them.

Get rid of it. Give it to the dog pound, or someone else who it responds to.
Dogs are pack animals. They need a dominant leader, and if it isn't you, you're in trouble.
As soon as they don't treat you like you are their leader, if the dog does not want to do anything and everything just to please you, it is never going to.
Save your $. Don't get a trainer.

I agree with the hand feeding response, it has worked for me and is an excellent technique, while telling him/her "easy" so he/she knows to be gentle. I would also use the high pitched "lets play" voice and positive reinforcement. Don't let the dog know you are afraid of it now. If you don't establish yourself as "alpha" and dominant now, the dog will never be your pet, you will be his/hers.

Well my sis told me this advice because my dog hates me to. Tell whoever is feeding it to stop and you start to take care of it. I think it is working for me. But I can't be to sure about it

Get rid of the damn thing and get a bird or a lizard instead. Dogs ae stupid, smelly creatures and no fun to play with anyway.

What were you doing when it bit you? Did you corner it or hit it? Were you taking it's food away? Is it aggressive to anyone else? Can't answer your question if we don't know how the bite happened.
