Adorable Nip
How to keep teething puppy from biting?
We have an adorable 10 1/2 week old puppy. He's a big boy -- around 30 (35?) pounds and will eventually grow to around 110 or 115. He's also teething and likes to nip or bite us (his poor owners) although he's quite good with company and strangers. I'm sure it's just a puppy's way of playing, but he's getting big enough that these play bites really hurt. We have consistently told him "no", in increasingly loud voices, with no effect. We've tried pushing the puppy away, and we've tried walking into another room and ignoring the puppy. No effect. Help.
P.S., He has two Kong toys, a nylabone, a kong "floss" rope, three stuffed animals, and a few other toys. I think this qualifies as a lot of toys, but maybe not? As an example, this morning, he was playing with the Kong floss rope when he suddenly dropped it and bit my foot.
When puppies play with each other they use their mouths. You will need to teach them that biting is not acceptable behavior. The best way to do this is by telling then "No bite" and giving them a toy or something it is ok for them to chew on. If this doesn't work, you can try tapping them on the nose or closing their mouth while still telling them "No Bite". If your puppy is teething, he will have the urge to chew. It does sound like you have a lot of toys, which is good. There are also puppy teething toys you can get that go in the freezer... this will feel good on their gums when they chew on it.
Just keep it up and your puppy will learn!
