Firstly, I don't think for one moment your dog is biting, she is playing, seeking attention, nothing more, you may have think you have sucessfully trained her not to do this - but pups like children forget. Think of a child seeing an icecream van and running across the road, they forget all you have told then when their minds are elsewhere, pups/young dogs do the same when they get excited, I do not see this as a major problem, just a habit that needs breaking as quickly as possible there is plenty written on the subject and many ways of discouraging it, i do not know what methods you have tried but a little reading should bring many solutions.
regards

Re: Puppy Still Biting Help

This is nothing more than normal, healthy, puppy play biting that is being allowed to get out of hand.

I think the problem is you are trying too many methods and not giving them enough time. I would expect one method (have a google for 'The Bite Stops Here' ir look on the other threads for it) to take about 5 weeks or so to work.

Absolute consistency is the key to dog training. If you worry about he pup with your daughter, stricter supervision is needed.

Hi,

You might find it helpful to check out this thread:

Please tell me it gets better

and this post:

Obviously only an adult should employ the methods outlined in the above post.
