How to Stop your dog biting forever?

in puppy •  6 years ago 

Most dogs and puppies engage in mouthing, nipping or play biting, which is normal. Puppies spend a great deal of time playing, chewing and investigating objects. If you’re worried that your own dog may bite someone else, there are precautions you can take. All of these normal activities involve puppies using their mouths and their needle-sharp teeth. Puppies usually learn bite inhibition during play with other puppies. So teach your dog appropriate behavior. Follow my article.

Causes of dog biting:

  • Dog fear can cause dog bites.
  • Dog pain can cause dog bites.
  • Prey drive can cause dog bites.
  • Dog possessiveness can cause dog bites.
  • Maternal instincts can cause dog bites.

How to Stop Dog Biting from Happening?

License your dog as required by law and provide regular veterinary care, including rabies vaccinations. For everyone's safety, don't allow your dog to roam alone. Make your dog a member of your family. Dogs who spend a great deal of time alone in the backyard or tied on a chain often become dangerous. Dogs who are well-socialized and supervised are much less likely to bite. If you do not intend to breed your dog, then having them spayed or neutered will help decrease the risk of bite related behaviors. Exercise and play with your dog on a regular basis to reinforce the human-animal bond and to expend excess energy that might otherwise be directed towards nervous energy. If you have children take the time to educate them on how to act around dogs, what to watch for and what to do if a dog attacks.

If your dog's dangerous behavior cannot be controlled, do not give him to someone else without carefully evaluating that person's ability to protect him and prevent him from biting.
