When you play with your puppy, let him mouth on your hands.

Continue play until he bites especially hard.

When he does, immediately give a high-pitched yelp, as if you're hurt, and let your hand go limp.

This should startle your puppy and cause him to stop mouthing you, at least momentarily.

  • To stop your puppy from biting, here is what you can do: The training is best done in a play pen so you can walk away easily without your puppy following you. Begin petting your puppy gently and playing. If she is biting on your hand, continue playing only if the bites are not causing pain.
