Hello. First post after my introduction one, and I need some advice, please. We've got a 6-7 month old rescue cockapoo, and he's biting, and it's really starting to hurt. I've read loads, and tried everything to try and sort a solution....
We've yelped and said no bite.
We've left the room, and waited 15 seconds, and then reentered as if nothing's wrong.
We've put him out of the room, then let him back in a few seconds later.
We've got the no bite spray. Seems to not affect him at all. Just us, when we inadvertently 'taste' it in the air.
We've tried substituting a chew toy instead of hands.
I know he's doing it because he's excited, and it's not agressive at all, but it's getting to be a real problem the bigger his teeth get. Are there any other ideas you could suggest? Does it just naturally stop.
He has quite a few chew toys.
Before we got him, he was with his litter, so probably the first 4 months of his life, so I guess this is standard for him so maybe a little more ingrained than other pups?
