BingBlaze n Skyla Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 I would stop the rough play all together , for now anyway , either yelp like his siblings would if he was to hurt them , or when he gets too rough a firm no or ahah and remove him from the room till his is calm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthewj Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 hi, we had the same problem with my husky Loki, we stopped all rough play and when he nipped he was told firmly " NO BITE".........took about a 2 weeks, and now he's fine. He will still nip if he gets overexcited but the NO BITE words stop him straight away...good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydiamond Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 buy him a chew toy, if he doesn't already have one. Every time he nips you, or anything else he shouldn't put in his mouth, replace it with his toy. At the same time you can tell him "no" or "no bite" like what Matthew and Nix mentioned hope this helps xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
