Stop Dog From Biting

I have a 3 year old poodle who when he is punished he tends to bite after the individual. If you should play with his paws he bites at the individual. I have kids that are 4 years old and when they hug him he tends to growl as if he is getting mad.I would like to know how to Train a 3year old Poodle to stop biting?

Answer #1

You sure take your dog to the vet and tell them whats going on so they can see if anything is wrong with your dog. I know someone who had a dog that was doing the same thing and she found out he had arthritis and that it hurted him when people touch his limbs and that was why he was doing that. If that isn’t the case than you could take your dog to obedient school or even getting a book on training your dog. You can also try getting a book on poodles too.

Answer #2

I would recomend a no-bite spray. Dogs hate the taste of sour apple.
