Bite Problem!

[CarrieB]

My puppy Bella bites A LOT. She doesn't do it to be mean, she just does it just to play. I she is just a puppy but she bites SO hard because her teeth are so sharp. How can I stop this? She is a very very energetic puppy, and if you say "No" she completly ignores you. Sometimes she bites so hard you can't even get her off you!! It's terrible.

I had the same problem when Tito was a puppy, I know how horrible it can be. What I did was just put him down, said ¨ENOUGH¨in a loud voice and walk into another room and shut the door for a couple of minutes. Maybe you should buy her a rope toy that she can tug and chew on with you, instead of your hands. Good luck!

P.S. Its nice to see another Bella around here!

Hi and welcome to PT. My name is Terry and I live with two chihuahuas, Daisy and Delilah(pictured below). I absolutely love your crew. You must be in heaven living with so many cutie patootie chihuahuas. I've never owned a chi that was/is a biter so I can't offer any advice. Sorry, I can't help but I wish you luck. I hope we get to hear and see alot more from you and your adorable little family
