Things You'll Need
- Dog treats
- Chew toy
Instructions
Yelp loudly in a dramatic manner and say "No" in a stern, firm voice immediately after the puppy's teeth come into contact with your hands, arms, legs or feet.
Turn away from the puppy and ignore it for approximately one to two minutes. Withdrawing your attention from the puppy will make it realize that biting is not okay and if it does bite, its play time will come to a screeching halt.
Resume playing with the puppy and repeat the above listed steps each time the puppy attempts to bite you.
Reward the puppy with treats and praise every time he obeys or responds positively to your training commands.
Provide a chew toy for the puppy. According to the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine, puppies regularly go through teething stages and need something to chew on to relieve some of the pain and discomfort it may be feeling.
