Stop puppy biting with handling games

So… my puppy goes completely spastic and any sign of food. How will this work. It’s like he’s starving to death. Plus if he’s to much and we put him in his pin he just barks for hours.

He will sit for treats and go in his crate, but he just bites non stop. It’s kind of out of control.

How do you handle him calming if he's attacking you and biting the shit out of you…. Our 8 week old Staffie a shark

Our puppy doesn't stop fighting anything doesn't even get calm so I'm never around her

Once our puppy starts to bite his kennel from the outside, none of his toys interest him no matter how exciting you make them 🙁

I adopted a 50 lb puppy; he hasn't been neutered and is almost a year old. I am able to redirect to a chew toy. He brings it near me and transfers from the chew toy back to me. I get up and leave the room. When I reenter he's waiting and "ambushes" me. I leave the room again. When I return, he's sitting in my chair.

To avoid him using getting me to leave to take my chair, I have started standing and calmly saying enough. He will then select a chew toy from the ones already on the floor, or go lay down on his bed or lay down by the front door. I say yes, but don't treat as it produces excitement even using less stimulating rewards like his kibble.

Thor is a lab shepherd mix and a little undersized for his age. He is very smart. Sometimes it is almost like he is modifying my behavior! Lately when I start to stand, Thor jumps up throwing his whole body weight at me knocking me back in my chair! He is not being aggressive; his body language is playful.

I am a dog trainer. Thor every technique I have successfully used with other puppies and older dogs don't seem to work with Thor. The plus side of my experience with Thor is going to make me a better trainer. The thing is, I am extremely limited as to what I can use as a positive reinforcement. Food excites him, toys excite him, a scratch behind the ear is exciting, eye contact excites him. I am limited to capturing foundation behaviors using verbal praise only.

Thor limits his puppy biting to me. He is very friendly towards girls and women. He is more shy around men; Thor either stands by my side or slightly behind me. I instruct them to let him choose to come to them. Let him sniff; it's not necessary to stick your hand out. If Thor chooses not to come to them, I ask people to respect Thor's choice. In a strange way I suppose I should be complimented that Thor chooses only to bite me. I guess it means that he trusts me.

I need whatever treats those are because mine ignores his 😀

This is excellent

I recently found your training videos and love them! I'm curious: do you think this method will work on a 1-year-old dog? Our dog has become incredibly mouthy in her adolescence. Thanks!

What happens when your puppy gets way to excited??😭😭 how do you calm your pup down without saying “no” or “stop”. I have a 12 week old English bulldog & he’s full of energy

Excellent video! I always recommend Kikopup videos to my students who need reminders between our training sessions. I was at your presentation in Reno a few years ago.

He's already 5 months old wish I could've found your channel earlier

P

My dog was token away from her mom at 5 weeks and she bites way to much. I tried whimpering. I tried putting her in a different room. Tried treats NOTHING WORKS

What do I do when my nine week old puppy is literally attacking me repeatedly and has no interest in toys? He gets in these moods where he really comes at me and I can’t stop him.

How many treats do you use per training session for a 9 week old puppy? Ours is only slightly interested in kibble but don’t want to over feed her straight meet or salty processed stuff. Thank you!!

Not a good idea to do this with his or her dinner…..

I feel like mine won't be calm enough to get it to go after the toy instead of me. Mine never lays in front of me like that. She's also psychotic over food and will keep coming at me for more food instead of being calm. I can't seem to figure out how to get her to be calm. Or which video to watch first. All the videos so far are too advanced for her.

How do I make my puppy stop biting my other dogs? One takes up for herself but the other one doesn't. She just runs to me. I stop him but it's tiring. xD

Thank you for sharing this! I've been wondering how to work on this with my chompy puppy, and I'm excited to finally have some guidance.

What do you think about squealing ? Some people told me you should make a noise like a puppy would make when it’s hurt. But my dog just got more excited. I think I was a pretty convincing hurt dog, but he didn’t care.

I’m watching all your videos over and over. Thank you so much for sharing. You are absolutely amazing!

Hi, first I want thank you for all your videos, they helped us so so much. We made a mistake by training our puppy with food too much and too often. Now we have a situation that she bites us really aggressively when she wants treats. We decided to stop for a week with training in the house, and reinforce calmness, but the biting got really, really worse. it hurts so much we cry from pain. We are really lost and don't know what to do. Any ideas?
