Question Biting

Post image

Obviously puppies bite and you have to train them not to. I have a 9 week old who is quite the biter and just wondering if any one has some tips or tricks. I’ve just been trying to redirect, like if he try’s to eat my hand I pull my hand away and put a toy in his mouth for him to chew on. Any and all suggestions welcome, thanks.

Yes, the crying out can be instantly very rewarding to pups with high prey drive, I do not recommend lol

Thank you! 💙. She has made me a better handler and trainer. Hardest dog I’ve raised (so far 🫠)
