W Sibs Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 it does hurt!! i train emmy to grab things out of my hands (Training in Prey drive) and sometimes she gets too excited and grabs my hand instead of the tug toy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonecutter Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I was bitten on the weekend (drew blood) - we were tugging with a rope toy and it was totally my fault as I wasn't paying attention! Nadine - is she ok with mouthing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadine83 Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 CW EW- Ouch! Stonecutter- Yes, she is gentle with mouthing but we yelp when she mouths us or our clothes and that stops her. We then redirect her to her toys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlett Dog Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 my girl got me on the nose when she was about 10 weeks old. I was sitting on the ground with her. I looked like i'd been brawling or something! I have a nice scar now. Little bugger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His mouth is getting softer tho, I let him chew on my hands a bit this morning to test it. Thank goodness! He got me on the nose the other day too, out of nowhere, leapt like a dolphin and chomp! No blood, and he withdrew sooo quickly when he realised what he'd done. He also got me on the finger when we were playing tug, and I bled probably one drop of blood cos he's so small. Puppies!!!!! *goes to look up training in drive* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogsrawesome Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 yes it does, my friend had foster pups a few months back and we were giving them a bone to chew on and one of them grabbed my thumb instead of the bone. Blood down my finger ouchies i hate when they find your hair fun to tug on too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry I added more glue as payback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzy82 Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Telling my puppy 'ow!' didn't really do much. So I would be playing roughly with him, which he looooves, then as soon as he hurt me I would say 'ow' and then freeze and ignore him for 10 seconds. Then the game would continue and I would repeat as needed. Another thing I did was when he tried to take half my finger along with treats, I would pull my hand back with the treat. He is very food motivated, so he got that one quickly too. He is 9 months today, and he has a VERY soft mouth, he hasn't hurt me for months.

minxy Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Tell me about it. My fingers are absolutely throbbing when I come home from dog training. Kyojin and I aren't coordinated enough for me to drop treats above his head for him to catch. Instead I get overly enthusiastic ginormous Akita chompers snatching frankies out of my hands.

Nekhbet Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 I cant tell my pup off at all for biting ... I can redirect her to a toy instead but sometime she ninjas me when i'm not paying attention dammit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirst_goldens Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 sometimes pulling the treat away from the dog can make them lunge towards u for the treat so u need to be careful to teach him that as children often draw their hards back when treating dogs as a fear reaction...

blinx Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I had my first puppy biting experience this morning. Think its something to do with how he went to puppy preschool for the first time and thinks its now okay to play nip? My "ouch!" didn't get much reaction, going to have to try the freeze tactic, else walk away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claireybell Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 When my cocker was just a baby I was teaching heal by leading her with food in my hand. Once I was finished I realised that I had dripped blood all over the concrete from all the little nips I'd gotten! Hurt like hell!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
