Dog Training & Care : How to Get a Puppy to Stop Biting

[KUSHSMOKA559]

Thats a beautiful dog bruh

[MelodyPythonVeria]

"He may scream, he may whine, he may bite..."

Then why are you doing it to dogs? All you're doing is scaring the dog out of biting. Generally there's an emotional reason behind biting. You sort of covered excited biting (badly). All your methods will do is supress the biting, the emotion will still build and your dog will want to bite even more (as some people on here have pointed out). Redirect that energy to something else, like a toy. Don't give them the oppertunity to bite you.

[staroxia]

@MelodyPythonVeria Actually, no, The way the mother teaches the pup to calm down and stop biting is to Growl, nip, cover their muzzle with theirs, and a few others. Mother dogs pups that are being disciplined yelp as well.

[MelodyPythonVeria]

@staroxia But there are ways to teach a dog without using these techniques that make a dog yelp. So why do it?

Plus, dogs taught by their mother to not bite will still bite in situations when they are scared, maybe not so often when over excited since that's what the mother is disciplining. If we teach our dogs another way to react when they're scared or deal with it rather than biting it's less likely they'll bite than if you just punish for it.

[staroxia]

@MelodyPythonVeria First of all, A dog shouldn't be Scared in the first place. Or have a Reason to be scared. If it is scared, then why shouldn't it bite? It's defending it self. Dealing with Fear for a dog is just letting them bottle their emotions up. Thats when a dog turns on someone, because the owner is trying to humanize a Dog. My 6 week old pup, in the toddler stage, is popped on the nose when he bites too hard simulating a mothers nip When he chews hes told No and given a toy he Can chew

[staroxia]

@staroxia Also, All dogs are different, and not all dogs will respond to one type of correctional action. My pup is too young to know what "No" Means. I Literally have to Mother him. I have to teach him dog body language, how hard he can bite, what is acceptable and not. He doesn't speak english, he doesn't know what No is. The only thing that works for him, is Growling at him like his mother would, or "Nipping" like his mother would. He only Just learned his name.

[MelodyPythonVeria]

@staroxia I don't suggest a "No" either. There are ways to correct how a dog behaves other than punishment, like teaching them a different way to respond. A dog is biting while playing, teach it to bite a toy instead or to do something else while playing instead of biting. I've found that with my grandparent's puppy the best "punishment" is removing my attention. Most dogs are the same, though some aren't.

thank you for uploading!! 

[19sami19]

that didnt work. HE STILL BITES ME

[staroxia]

@19sami19 Then he sees you as a litter-mate, not the mother.

[PRJking]

When you cause pain to your dog, he won't trust you ever.

I stopped my dog from biting me by luring him with a bone making my hand less attractive.

Time after time I put my hand in front of his mouth and every time he bite me, I distracted him with the bone, once he stopped I rewarded him by padding him on his chin (not punching him up his chin).

Do not be violent towards your dog!

[andreyz94]

@PRJking and i bet he still bites you....and you always have to distract him....not effective

[PRJking]

@andreyz94 No he doesn't, at worst he bites me until I say "Stop".

Instead of punishing your dog for doing something wrong, reward him when he does something right, always be positive.

Remember that dogs don't want to ruin your life, only humans do that, they only want someone to lead them.

How can you expect a 9 weeks old puppy to understand the concept of punishment?

by hitting your dog like that, the dog learns that his owner is untrustworthy.

[TheCrytX]

oh yes u must break his neck

and than this techniques will work!

[strawberykiri]

I've never seen a mother dog close a puppies mouth until it settles down...and those techniques will not work for most puppies because they bite becuase they want to play with you. reacting to the biting in this way can exite some pups even more, which will be unleashed by more biting because many see it as you playing with them. If a puppy bites to try playing with you, removing yourself from the puppy EVERY time it bites you. It will teach the puppy that biting= you leaving.

[TheAstroble]

@strawberykiri YOu are half right. Yes he wants to play but if you have other children then removing yourself = the puppy going to a child to play with and bite them. Yes they want to play. I have tried closing his mouth. Doesnt' work. I have tried making a fist every time he tries to bite so that my hand is not a comfortable toy. Not successsful. I have tried the newspaper. he just wants to shred that. Still thinks I am playing. So I either have a retarted dog or he needs a muzzle. Right?

[strawberykiri]

@TheAstroble Nope, your dog just finds those things rewarding. If a puppy learns that biting leads to being in a "time out," and they are giving appropriate things to chew on instead when they are playing, then they will be more successful. A proper time out is one where the pup has no access to people, and only needs to last a minute (literally!). Also, if a pup is encouraged to chew on something he IS allowed to have, his mouth will be busy on that instead of on your hand.

[billyoffire]

what if he bites my leg?

[oscarsanders07]

simplest way to stop a dog from biting: dont get one in the first place

[espector92]

it's a bit rough,

[dustdragon44]

on your net no biting video can you do it with my puppy he woulda snapped out your face by now

[KayKayPProdutions]

I tried that. . My siberian husky just bit me more and got more mad! D: And I don't want to hurt him! T_T

[lalave2006]

His dog must hate him!

[MrSpikeyboy2010]

i simply told my puppy paco NO! and he was done i didnt hit or bop him,just a stern No! and he never bite me again,although he bites my dog spike,but they are just playing i believe

[youngfreeze121]

doing that muzzle grab with a pittbull gets them angry and they bite more so do not do that at all you simply smack them on the nose and tell them to cut it out and keep doing that everytime they get carryed away

[camau79]

somehow i doubt this will work on my 12 week old gsd i read the best way to stop them from biting is to ignore them

[boydman117]

It's so simple! Just hit your dog in the chin until he passes out due to brain hemorrhaging!

[CANSRONES]

how do you get rukus to look like he does he looks really fit

[h3l3na07]

Yeah... I have a pitbull. That method doesn't work for me.

To make her stop chewing my hand, or the cats, or the cables... I just say "No", loud and firmly. It usually works.

Tried to hold her mouth closed, but she is stronger then me. An she is only 3 months old. It would deffinetly not work when she'll be a adult. If I hit her like the guy shows in the video, I only make her angry...

Try to do it without force, would be my advice. But make sure the dog understands who the pack leader is.

[realwomanhavecurves]

@emmyq8 He is hot! :)

[realwomanhavecurves]

he is a CERTIFIED dog trainer maybe he is saying these things because it works for the dogs he has trained. If hes CERTIFIED he must be right about some things.

[kibaslover1]

i've always just done a quick hard tap to the nose and i have a blue heeler pup a dog bread to bite and he wouldn't dream of biting anyone

[CannedKoolaid]

@kibaslover1 i love that kind of dog!

[XNuMetalX]

my pup just bites more =/

[TheYaraful]

This only makes the dog more aggressive. DON'T LISTEN TO HIM! I may not be an expert, but it's common sense!

[xKoalaManx]

when i tried both my dog just bites more!!

[MrsSparkleful]

it doesnt work! my puppy is tiny and is very active so it wont work because he is very strong

[emmyq8]

you're hot !

[SouthParkRocks9]

This also works. If he has a grab of your hand:

1. Put your thumb under his tongue.

2. Put your other fingers under his chin.

3. Press your fingers together.

4. He will stop biting (hopefully) and this will feel uncomfortable for your puppy. So every time he bites do this and he will start knowing no to bite or nip at you.

[rngerz]

hmm.. i tried holding his muzzel.. it became calm for about two second.. then it turned aggresive again :c

[exoidias1]

is there any video on youtube that shows how to make a puppy stop crying in its cage? cause mine won't stop

[Reneeann91]

@exoidias1 look at expertvillage they have tons of youtube vids

[rayquaza9821]

i always wanted my chihuahua to cry when his in the cage

[Nakayla88]

does this work with small dogs?

i know dumb question, but i need 2 knoe.

[Wikipediot]

i bit the dog back..

[sAmetserbest1992]

did it work?

[dogandmileymad]

THANKS THAT REALLY HELPS ME my puppy bit me up my thumb and left really massive deep scars and i had to go to hospital

[matthonest]

haha

[mascarenada]

cute pup

[jsf525]

do you get natgeo on your t.v ? if so watch the dogwhisperer. he will show you how.

[x3dgr]

i do that to my dog and have been doing it ever scinces he was 6 weeks now hes 4 months but he wont stop!

[jsf525]

The best way is to hold the dog down on his or her side and use your hand as a mouth of a dog and your fingers as teeth. You hold the Dog down on the neck just as another dog would do to another Dog.

and you slowly move your hand away till the Dog gives up. Now he will see you as a pack leader. this is the same as the dog whisperer Cesar millan would do.

I am a trainer in boca raton Florida.

I volunteer at all the dog shelters to rehabilitate dogs so they can get a good home.

thank you

Jeff

[kurtdrocker]

can you make a video about this and pls send the link if you do. thanks

[jsf525]

that is because you are now following thou.

take your time and do not let the dog go till the dog lies there on his own for a few min. also you have to walk your dog twice a day to drain that energy. you get trust on the walk as long as you are in front.

who ever is out the front door 1st or on a walk in the leader.

2nd to get respect you have to set rules, limits and , like not going on the couch unless invited.

Last you show love and affection never 1st. and never when misbehaving

[jsf525]

6 weeks is too early for anything.

wait till 3 month old before you do any of these things I talk about.

I know your dog is now 4 months so start now. If you don't walk your dog nothing will work with hard case's or a red zone dog.

I Work mostly with red Zone case.

I get paid $600 per day.

I only need 1 day and maybe 1 follow up.

but my customers have to do there home work every day or it's a waste of money and I tell them that up front

[ViPerDDR]

i got like 100 of scarthes and bite on my arm when i play with my 2 month old german shepard. but now imma try it

[menikfire]

thanks bro after 2 day of doing this my puppy has stopped biting me and my wife!! once again thanks!!!

[jsf525]

[MikeHaji]

my puppy is VICIOUS!! i pet him, he bites, i play with him he bites, and when he bites i start bleeding. its that bad. i tried EVERYTHING!!! he even bit the vet when he tried to pick him up for his shot. we are giving him away its THAT BAD!! HELP!

[say12thebear]

my puppy too

but only when he;s in a playing mood

does your pup bite your face?

[menikfire]

lol no not at all only if we leave him alone for some hours and we come back home were there he gets to happy to see us back and he tries to lick us in the face but he tries to lick us so fast and it almost feels as if he is trying to bite our face lol!!!

[cpdjustice]

you are not a certified trainer - DO NOT FOLLOW THESE TACTICS.

[jsf525]

no dog can hold another dogs mouth to close the mouth. they pin them down on the neck with a bite or with there paws, I prefer the bite works best

[truthugahz]

That does not work with my dog he wants to bite me more.

[jsf525]

I am a trainer so try my way
