why MY DOGGIE IS ALWAYS BITING ???

Question

I KNOW IT IS JUST PLAYING.... BUT IT IS ALWAYS BITTING US...... WAT TO DO FOR THAT.. PLZ HELP ME FRIENDS...

Answer 1

Don’t tap your pup’s nose to stop biting. Why? You will cause the pup to become handshy. If you expected a person to shake your hand and they slapped your face instead and next day they shook hands and the next time….. what would your response be? You want your pup to relate positively to you, not to be fearful of the hand that may be feeding it, grooming it, putting on the lead, etc.
Bite Inhibition
Dogs must learn bite inhibition, ie not to bite fully. In a pack of other dogs, it is important not to damage your relatives or other pack members when playing. How strong a play bite is depends upon the feedback obtained by the dog from the “bitten” animal: if the “bitten” animal bites back or yelps or stops playing then it was too hard.
Unfortunately for humans, dogs’ skin is thicker than human skin especially around the neck and head area (where dogs tend to grab other dogs).
If you wait until your pup has bitten your skin then your reaction is to pull away, the dog has learned only that it can make you dance.
You should react when the pup grabs your clothing, including shoe laces, etc. Don’t shout and dance about. Why? The pup learns to make you more exciting and interesting and is rewarded. Do yelp and close down, stop interacting and stop looking at your dog. Become immobile. After all, your playmate has hurt you so why should you continue to play? After a period of one minute, normal activity can resume.

Answer 2

There is some bitter tasting water spray, I use Nature's Miracle. Your local petstore should have some, or Walmart might. Spray anywhere you don't want the dog to bite. If he tries to bite once, he won't again b/c he got a bitter taste.

Answer 3

Hold your dogs mouth shut and say no. Then get it something it is allowed to bite. This will teach your dog appropriate things to bite.
