How to Stop Puppy Biting

Puppy biting is a natural behavior, but it's important to teach your puppy that biting humans is not acceptable. The first step is to understand that puppies bite to explore their environment, play, and communicate. However, it's crucial to teach them bite inhibition, which means controlling the force of their bites.

When your puppy bites, let out a high-pitched yelp to signal that it hurts, and then withdraw your attention for a few moments. This mimics the reaction of other puppies during play and teaches your puppy that biting leads to negative consequences. Provide them with plenty of chew toys to satisfy their need to bite and chew.

Consistency is key. All family members must respond the same way to biting. With time and consistent training, your puppy will learn that biting is not an acceptable behavior and will develop a gentle mouth.
