Puppy Training Tips Biting
I have a 3 month old Lhasa puppy – how to train from biting?
I understand that puppies bite as an expression of playfulness and communication, but his biting is getting worse and worse. Now he just wants to clamp down on you and not let go. I’ve tried telling him “No” and even tried to yelp in doggy talk as some articles suggest, but he just keeps coming back for more. Any tips please!
I’ve owned a couple of Lhasa’s – they were not used as guard dogs they’re used as centurion dogs, to alert their master of an intruder. The most effetive way to teach your pup not to bite is to wedge their lip under the teeth so when they bit it hurts – they’ll associate hurting with biting your hand. Stop playing with the dog when it bites, and don’t make eye contact – this does work! He’ll learn that if he wants to play he can’t bite hard – and certainly not your hand. It’s also an immaturity thing, but your pup needs to learn that it can’t bite people, but when they play with other dogs they bite each other.
However you choose to decipline the dog, make sure you’re consistent and the dog will learn. Lhasa’s are very stubborn and need consistency, they will test your limits!
Hope this helps.
