Article From SubmitYOURArticle.com: How To Stop Dog Biting

Dog biting may be a significant behavior problem
for a dog. When a dog is a puppy it will be a
rather annoying problem.

If this behavior is left without giving the dog
discipline, it may result in a serious biting
problem.
In particular if your doggie is a large
breed.This kind of canine is dangerous, and
frequently you hear of neighbors and youngsters
getting bitten by this sort of dog. It does not
matter what age your dog is; young or old it's
possible to get control of your dog's biting
trouble.

Biting is an organic and natural behavior for
canines, and it is simply instinct that makes
your puppy want to learn to bite. The very best
way to stop dog biting is to stio it when the dog
is still young. Young dogs that are under 6
months old are the least difficult to train, this
is due to the fact that this is the age in which
they learn the most. It is a common mistake to
presume your puppy is teething or playing when
they bite. This is not the case, and in actual
fact the puppy is laying claim to their place in
the pack. The pup is trying to show they are in
control when they bite.

When they do bite you, you really should show
them that it is you that is the boss. You need to
do this why there are still in the learning stage
of their life. That which you do when a puppy is
six months to a year old will set him up for the
rest of his life. There are many different
strategies you can use to educate your dog to
stop biting. You can sometimes start bite
training when your puppy is still with his
siblings and mother. A tiny nip to the neck, or a
little whimper when the puppy bites you is a
strategy you can use. It is also crucial that
your puppy has his own chewing toy, so that he
bites on the toy instead of the family. Each and
every time the puppy goes to bite, give him his
toy. He will get that he is to bite the toy and
not you. Make certain everyone in the family
knows what to do. If all this hasn't worked you
may need to enroll your dog in to obedience
class, or use a professional trainer.

If not biting hasn't been part of a puppy's
training, when he's 1 year old he will begin to
bite while in play. Quite a few different factors
may be at play when your doggie reaches this
stage, and is still biting.One of the reasons
could be that the games you are playing such as
wrestling or tug-of-war are dominance style
games, and ought to be stopped straight away. You
have to show your canine friend that there are
limitations in your house. Crate training is a
superb way to train a dog. Not only does it help
with aggressive behavior, but it can also help
with house-training, and it can help to relax
canines with anxiety difficulties. For a pet of
this age, obedience training that is strict will
do your doggie a world of good.

If the doggie hasn't been taught effectively when
he was young, when they are adults you can
certainly have a real problem on your hands. Dogs
like this can be a ticking time bomb, and can
turn on you, a member of your family or a
neighbor. A pet of this age with a biting problem
obviously thinks he is either the alpha dog or
near the top of the pack. I solidly suggest that
you look for the assistance of a specialist dog
trainer if you dog is around one year old, and
they bite and nip people.

It is important that you start instructing your
puppy not to bite when your puppy is very young.
In most cases of adult dogs that bite, the
problem could have been remedied if the dog was
given correct training when it was younger.
