Do you have a pet canine that bites? Then it is time you took remedial action to stop a puppy from biting. There is great risk in allowing it to continue, just because you feel it is only nipping. Playful nipping will in the end, turn into serious and dangerous biting.

No dog owner should have a puppy that may endanger children, the guests or anyone that may come to their home. If your dog has a biting problem then there are ways to stop a dog from biting. Not remedying the problem of your dog biting will definitely end up with both, your pet, and you in serious trouble. If your doggy is apt to bite and manages to get out alone, it can bite a child or even an adult passing on the street, and if the bite causes serious injury your dog could be put down as a hazardous animal, and you end up being paying for the damages. In order to prevent such things happening to your visitors, you and your dog, the only thing to do is to learn how to stop puppies from biting.

Biting is problematic behavior pattern in dogs and is best handled when the dog is a few weeks old. All doggies love to chew, so the first thing to have is an ample supply of chew toys around. This helps a long way into discouraging a puppy trying to mouth anything and everything it can place its jaws around, because mouthing is the inception of all biting problems. If your dog was long enough with its mother it would have been taught by its mother, and litter mates, how to repress its biting urges and tendencies. If a puppy bites its mother, the mother will yell. The puppy is startled and alarmed at the reaction, and when he bites her the second time his mother would howl louder and even growl at the puppy as she turns away from him, disregarding the biting puppy. This is how puppies get the message that they cannot use that thrust with their jaws and teeth, and if the puppy bites the mother the third time his mother will turn on him aggressively. So the puppy gets instructions from its mother and mates in the social pack that biting is not an acceptable behavior.

Since we have dislodged the puppy from this original training environment, we have do the same thing its mother does to stop the puppy biting. The technique us humans could use to complete this training would be to yelp in a high-pitched voice every time the doggy tries to hold with its mouth or bite any part of our body or even clothing. A little bit of fabrication would help to get the point across. If the mouthing continues, start ignoring the puppy after the 'yelp' and refuse to play with it. The puppy will soon get to know that biting leads to all the fun and affection being cut short, and will realize that biting is not correct behavior pattern.

Another approach to stop puppy from mouthing is to use a muzzle. It may sound a bit harsh or extreme, but it is not. A muzzle will not injure the doggy in any way. It just prevents it from opening its chops wide enough to bite anything. The dog will soon figure out why the muzzle is on and will learn. Every pet owner must never forget, that, a dog that bites, is one of the most severe dog problems, which any dog owner could be plagued with. Play biting can lead to real damaging biting and steps to inhibit dog from biting must be taken before the unthinkable happens.
