How To Stop Puppy Biting Easily 

For anyone reading this: I know that dog training can be difficult sometimes, but you're doing great. Keep up the good work, and your dog (and your own sanity) will thank you for it! ❤️💕

I have a 54 pound, 6 month old puppy. He has more toys and things to chew on than the average dog but I'm still his favourite chew toy😜 I'm consistently trying these tips but it seems to just annoy him and makes him even more bratty. I appreciate these videos because I'm sure he'd be much worse if I didn't keep trying. He's really sweet (most of the time) and smart so I know if I keep working with him, he's going to be a great dog😊

I love the way you describe this! I will be using it in my training! Thanks Will!

Thank you for sharing your tips!

So precious and helpful - thank you very much!

I love Will’s videos the most they’ve been the most helpful🏆. I’ve seen so many other videos and what stands out with Will is his level of empathy. I get all dogs are different, for me just not into the total militant way of raising a dog. Cheers Will and thank you!

Love these videos I have learned a lot along the way

You look great will! Keep up the good work

Thanks for the tips 👏

Thank sos much for this and the link to the free course! I love everything you’re about! It was good to see you with a daschund as well, I don’t see many trainers training them, we have a 10 month puppy who is proving to be very challenging with biting and barking at people, despite us trying very hard from the start with her training. We had a border collie for 14 years that I trained, another cross breed before that and both could be trusted to never chew anything or bite! This puppy is a huge wake up call that it’s not always the owner!

Just watched the training videos iv learnt so much from your videos thank you. 😊

Thanks 😊

I appreciate you

The passive hold is actually working for me. Now I don't get scratches and bites, and he is biting a lot less. But when he does get bitey, now I know what to do.

This is great advice and we have been implementing it from day 1 but it's so hard when you have lots of young children and the puppy is very excitable. Requires constant intervention from us as the puppy loves to run around the garden excitedly with the children

Do your online courses include e-collars and prong collars? If not then I’m interested

Do you have a course for teens who own dogs?

Thank you so much! I find your advice very helpful and will help as long as my Bichon Frise practices this a whole lot and we stay consistent with this method! I had her for 4 days now and she knows her name and how to sit, come, and lay down. She’s very smart but since she!s 2 months old, she’s been teething and my whole family wants to make sure she doesn’t grow into the habit of biting people so we want to learn how to stop her from biting

Training my dog is easy. Training all the people who want to say hello to my dog, and who love sticking their hands in her mouth, is impossible! Same with jumping up to say hello. That’s the trouble with having the cutest dog in the park.

Do a whole Jack Russel terrier one

I was expecting my puppy to go through this phase. Cuz my other dogs did. But she did not. Very lucky hahaha.

I have a 4 month old German shepherd puppy and we have been doing this with her constantly over the past month. The thing is, she’s not getting it. We say “stop” and hold the collar/tuck her close to us so she can’t bite. Then she calms down and we re-direct onto a toy, which lasts about a second and then she’s right back to biting us again. We can barely play with her because all she ever wants to do is bite us. If we’re ever not fully paying attention to us, she’ll lunge and bite our legs, hands or even try to bite our faces. We’re consistent with the method you’re mentioning here but we’re not getting anywhere. The ONLY time she will listen to the “stop biting” is if she knows we have treats. When she knows we have them she won’t try to bite us at all. Like she KNOWS she’s not supposed to bite and will only stop for treats. The moment she knows the treats are gone, she goes right back to biting. We’re not sure what to do next :(

I’m hopefully going to get some advice from everyone I have a 1yr old staffie cross Frenchie I had him and his sister but a month ago I had to have her put to sleep she had a liver shunt and he has started nipping and biting his tail red raw does anyone have any advice thank you for reading and thank you for any tips x

I have a 8 week mini poodle who is constantly biting legs and fingers. Whenever i apply this tips, he starts barking, growling, and biting more aggressively. Does anyone have any tips? He is food driven and pretty smart. He does know how to sit and wait and is currently under crate training. The issue is whenever i try to correct him, being when he is nipping or biting what he shouldn't.

My past trainers and training sites, recommend not using "no" to train dogs, so I am writing to confirm that when you used it in step 1 of the behavior deterrence, it was not meant as a *word* the puppy needs to learn but more as an attention getting tactic before proceeding with step 2? Thank you! Oh and how could someone become a trainer? (in the U.S.)

Man, I feel like I’m doing all this with my 5mo golden/lab and he is just getting worse. Jumping and biting so aggressively and barking like crazy when I’m more assertive. Is that normal?

I really need help with my puppy. I have a 50 pound, 5 month old bernese mountain dog-golden retriever mix. He’s amazing most of the time. He absolutely loves people but he has been showing aggression towards them?! He was muzzled at the vet because he tried to bite, and he’s snapped and bitten me and a few of my family members a few time. He probably snapped at the vet because he was really stressed but I don’t know why he’s snapping at home. It hurts, he has broken skin on my arm😭 I don’t use training techniques that inflict pain or any thing like that I don’t know why he’s doing this. I’m really worried, I don’t want him to be put down for biting someone(he’s only around half way grown now?) He has been showing this agression since I got him(3 months old) It just started off as if he was sleeping and you touched him he would snap at you. My family decided to just not touch him while he’s sleeping, problem solved right? Nope, this aggression is still happening just in different scenarios. I’m wondering if this is just his temperment becuase I have a second puppy(3 months) who is so much more behaved and she hasn’t even gone through a fraction of the amount of training he has yet. I probably sound like a bad dog trainer if I already have a dog that bites but I’ve been trying so hard and doing so much research ): Does any one know why a puppy would be showing aggression and biting people!? Advice???

I tried to stop my puppy from biting by redirecting and it took 45 minutes . Can I do more to help this situation?

I was so optimistic after watching your several videos on this topic. However, my 14 weeks border aussie just turns from playful biting to aggressive biting with the active correction. What do I do wrong and what should I do? It only got worse :(

I have a black Russian terrier dog and lately I have been getting complaints that he stinks. He gets groomed. I’ve taken him to the vet. The vet doesn’t say he have a foul odor but he smells like a dog but people still complain that he stinks. Do you guys have any suggestions? I think it’s because he’s a big dog that little the smell is more noticeable, but I’m just like at this point I don’t know what to do. I love my baby and he is not going anywhere and if people don’t like them then they keep it moving.i guess I answered my question. Lol

I have an 11 week Australian shepherd and I can not get him to stop the nipping at the feet and heels of my girlfriend. He doesn’t do it to me much at all but he actively goes after her mainly at night. When I try your collar method he just gets more ramped up.

When I try this at my 3 monts puppy didn't worked. He became even more reactiv and agresiv. Why? Tnx

I totally get the logic of not giving them what they want when they're biting....but you then go on to give them a toy to chew on? Does this not teach them that biting gets them a toy?

Those little suckers have shark teeth! 🦈

What?? Puppies must learn how to play bitte in order to learn self-control. Typically, they worked learn this from the parents. This is very important with larger, powerful dogs especially. You should know better.
