Does You Dog Bite?
If a dog biting problem should start to develop this can change the relationship with your pet considerably and may even put you and other people around you at grave physical risk.
If the dog biting problem manifests itself while your dog is still a puppy, then correctional dog training can easily be done, allowing him to grow up into a well-behaved adult dog.
However, if your dog is already an adult when the biting begins, you may be up for a real challenge if you are going to correct his bad dog behavior, particularly if he is of a large and powerful breed.
When dealing with a dog biting problem, you first need to figure out what the reason is for your dog’s biting behavior.
Dogs bite for many reasons, including annoyance, solidarity, or a display of dominance.
Even when they are still pups they begin to use biting as a form of expression.
Therefore, it is recommended that they be trained as early as possible so that they don’t develop any serious dog biting problems once they are adults.
So once you determine the reason what do you do to stop it.
What Do You Do To Stop A Dog Biting Problem?
The main problem is that most people tend to consider puppy biting as just a form of play and thus do not do anything to correct it. So first of all, don’t allow it!
Puppies do bite when playing, but they do not do it because they think it’s fun. They do it because they are asserting their dominance.
Do not allow them to bite you. You be the assertive one. Have you noticed how their mother will allow it a little bit while they are very young, however, they will growl and snap as they begin to ‘overstep’ the mark.
If your dog is still a puppy, you should be able to correct his dog biting problem without any major glitches. All you have to do is to present him with a chew toy whenever it looks like he is about to bite you or another dog. Oftentimes, this strategy works because all the dog is looking for is something to dig his teeth into; he is not purposely looking for a human hand or a fellow dog to bite.
While training your dog to stop biting, it is imperative that you avoid engaging in any activities that will encourage him to bite further, like wrestling or any form of rough play.
This will not only make the dog biting problem worse but can also put you at serious risk.
If you have an adult dog that is biting, to make them stop requires training.
Should the problem turn out to be bigger than what you can handle, it might be better to call on the professionals to help you out. A few sessions with a competent trainer will be enough to solve the problem once and for all.
There many reasons why dog biting should be stopped as quickly as possible, so don’t leave it until it is too late.
