when you are playing rough with her and she bites you...say OW loudly and push her away and dont play with her for a few minutes...just walk away from the area that you were playing with her in...this should help and i hope it does !

I have a 5 month old Bichonpoo. I got her when she was 12 weeks old and she too had a biting problem. What I did was every time she bit me I told her firmly (without yelling) "no bite". If she was chewing something that she shouldn't be chewing I told her "no bite" and "switch" as I gave her a toy or bone to chew. She quickly learned what "no bite" and "switch" meant. The key is be persistent. Do it every time she bites. Don't yell at her. Don't hit her.

first of all stop playing rough,she is using her biting as a defense.if it continues at other times keep a spray bottle filled with water and spray her in the face this will let her know that it is not acceptable behavior

For dogs on a walk, I see people using a special type of muzzle on the mouth area. It keeps dog from opening mouth wide enough to bite.

It depends and the severeness, is she biting you so hard skin/blood is visible, or is she just play biting (nibbling). Since your puppy is a puppy, she doesn't know any better.

It depends if she gets mad when she bights or she wants to act tougher then you. If she is mad, then stop but wants to play you could tap her on the nose and say NO.
