My boss and his wife have a new poodle cocker spaniel mix puppy. She
came from a pet store and was about 2 1/2 months old when they got her
a couple of weeks ago. First night home she broke her let. The entire
situation has been very negative for a lot of reasons, but the puppy
is doing well except for some bad behaviour. Being from a puppy store
(most likely bred at a mill) I believe she was taken from the Mom way
too early and so she has not learned things bite inhibition. ON top fo
that these people should not have a puppy to begin with. Puppy is
comnig along with some things, like potty training. But she bites all
the time. Play biting, but none the less very annoying to adults and
will be dangerous situation when the grandchildren visit. We have been
giving her things she can bite or chew in place of hands, feet, noses,
ears, etc but she is getting worse instead of better. She is probably
bored too. How do we get a puppy to stop biting? I really need to find
some solution to this situation.
Thanks
