my Boxer when was a pup (now 2 yrs old) used to bite my feet when I was wearing socks, he destroy them all!!, was cute but a rascal of a pup who nipped even the drywall at times, a friend told me lemon peels oddor was a good solution or any citrus scent would keep the dog off from biting things he isn't suppose to, that helped back then somehow, now he doesn't destroy anything thankfully
@bluepetmusiclover Yes, you can accidentally create a behavior chain if you are not careful! To prevent this from occuring, you must reward multiple times before the puppy mouths your hands to create the association of rewards only come when puppy is not mouthing.
@bluepetmusiclover However, the possibility of accidentally rewarding unwanted behavior is much better than punishing the puppy and having yourself associated with unpleasant things. Plus, if you have the potential for the pup to not know what he is being rewarded you also have the potential for the pup to have no idea what he is being punished for if you decide the puppy needs a "correction." This results, among other things, a lack of trust and confidence in you and your training.
I always do similar things with toys reward with praise when he plays with his toy.

Will it create a behaviour chain? Like mouth, stop and get a treat?
