How can I get my 7 week old E. Mastiff to quit biting, she is teething, but her bites are now drawing blood and leaving deep puncture marks. Pleez help , it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so very much.

Hi, DebiC!

I am sure those bites hurt! Have you given her an alternative object to chew?

You can also try yipping, like one of her littermates and turning away. However, you should do this whenever her teeth touch you, whether it hurts or not. You want her to learn you are not a chewing companion. You give her the chew object because you realize she needs something to chew on -- just not you.

Let us know how things go,
