How to train a dog that jumps and play bites?
How do you train a dog that jumps and play bites?!? I have been trying to train my dog but she doesn’t catch on. She is a medium size German Shepperd Beagle. I tired the water bottle and a cage but nothing yet. She jumps when i come home then starts to play bite. But then it continues on.
She is also 1 1/2 years old. b-day November 14.

Grab her mouth and hold it closed. Not hurtfully or hard just enough to get it closed. Push her feet off you and say no. Ignore her till she calms down. Then when shes calm praise praise praise!!!!!!! If she starts again repeat. 🙂 Hope it helps <3

Dogs hate loud noises. They can tell when their bad because we usually say “bad dog” in a very loud and negative tone. Next time your dog play-bites, say “Ouch” really loud and see if it gets her attention. Do that over and over until you can say ouch and she will back off.

We have medium sized dogs, and the female especially gets a little excited and likes to jump up. When a dog jumps up, firmly bring the knee up — it will give you some space, and prevent the dog from jumping on your coat. Then you say “no. down!” in a loud voice.
When my dog gets down, I have her sit (to establish my dominance) and then I praise her a lot.
The big thing is to be consistent; you shouldn’t let it go one day, and then get mad the next. Always tell her no, and always have her get down.
The other thing is that I suspect she isn’t getting enough exercise. Does she get any exercise during the day? Of course she’s going to be a little stir-crazy. You should make it a priority to take her out, walk her, and maybe play a little tug-of-war with a towel or something FIRST THING (or at least within 30 minutes of returning home). Then maybe you can get some peace while you do the rest of your evening.
Love bites — often means “play with me!”
(-: This might sound crazy, but have you thought of getting her a companion? Maybe she’s really lonely.

Hi, I once adopted a dog from the local shelter and I had a terrible time trying to train him. Whenever he was left alone he would make a real mess! Anything I said was always just a suggestion to him that he could ignore. He was so rambunctious. He would not do anything I said. I tried lessons with the local trainer but those didn’t work! But then I found a great dog training book series called “My Dog Tutor”. I got my hands on these books and was able to fully train my dog in 4 weeks, I was so proud.
Now I’m thinking about adopting a 3rd dog because it’s just so easy to train them now!
