Young Puppie Bitting ALLOT!!

Hi I have an 9 week old Brittany Names Hunter Tomouro we have had him at home for 1 week, Hes been an awsome Puppy so far, The first 2 nights were terrible with his crying in the crate but he no longer crys when placed in there dureing the day or night :lol: , Our biggest issue right now is his bitting habbits, He bites everything, your plants your feet your fingers face arms counch boxes food dish you name it, Whats the best approach to put a end to this? we realize hes still a puppy and his adult teeth still havent arrived, Ive tried the firmly grabbing his noze and GRRRING at him loudly saying NO , Ive also tried giveing him a toy or a bone to chew on instead but he just wont stop he will drop the bone and go back to bitting what he was bitting before.

thanks
take care
Dave

 

Here is an article on teaching bite inhibition which I think you will find helpful:

Have you tried Bitter Apple? they usually dont like the taste (I think theres about 1% of the dog population that actually like it), its all natural and is safe, with some dogs you might see some drooling after theyve tasted it but it should stop after a couple of minutes. Just follow the directions on the label.
