Well of course it's not politically correct but I smacked my dog on the nose with 2 fingers every time he bit as a puppy and never once did I have a problem with him biting ever again. It took a few times of that before he stopped completely. He lived to be 16 and was the gentlest dog ever and no he didn't cower away from me or distrust me.

A dog should be trained on how to eat, walk with you, not to bark, potty training and sleep on its place etc. You can teach anything to your puppy, dogs get trained easily with some good instructions. If you want some good training tips visit https://tr.im/Dfcir
If properly trained, they should also understand whistle and gesture equivalents for all the relevant commands, e.g. short whistle or finger raised sit, long whistle or flat hand lay down, and so on.
It's important that they also get gestures and whistles as voice may not be sufficient over long distances and under certain circumstances.

Check his background maybe his parents were trained to be fighting dogs and now it's in his blood if this is so you should get rid of him...This is the thinking of most people when a dog bites anyway...But seriously with ANY dog patience and proper training will solve this problem just be constant with your actions and he will learn

When she bites you, say NO! And stop playing, walk away from her for a few minutes. This way she will learn that biting is not an approved way of playing.

If it serious biting you need to muzzle it if its play bitting you need to holds its mouth shout and say no bit if that doesnt work slap his nose or pluck it and say now he may need to go to a trainer
