Re: Water spray

There is an article here that explains puppy biting and how to deal with it, and will help, but you do have to follow it 110% consistently.

The Bite Stops Here

As your daughter is unlikely to be ale to follow the advice given at her age, I would only let the puppy near her under very strict supervision. The problem with children and puppies is that the puppy does somethign we don't liek them doing, be that jumping up, or biting, and the child naturally behaves in a way that is exciting for the puppy, usually screaming and waving their hands about, so the puppy continues or the behaviour escalates.

Work on giving your puppy a good recall in the house, so that if puppy does get over-excited with your daughter and she can't deal with it herself, you can simply call puppy over to you.
