What a nipping plan looks like
- Chew choices in several textures, so the puppy has something right to bite when teeth are itchy.
- A calm pause when teeth touch skin, followed by a switch to a toy or a quiet activity.
- Naps on a schedule, because tired puppies bite more than rested ones.
- Rules for children and visitors, so everyone responds in the same way.
- Tug and fetch with clear start and stop cues, which turn rough play into practice.

Good questions
Before you begin.
Will my puppy grow out of biting?
Many puppies mouth less as adult teeth come in, but habits can stick if they pay off. Teach a better option while the puppy is young.
Should I hold my puppy's mouth closed?
No. Grabbing the mouth can frighten a puppy and make hands scarier. Redirect to a toy and end play when it gets rough.
Why is my puppy worse in the evening?
Many puppies get wound up at the end of the day. A nap, a chew and a calm walk once the ground cools can take the edge off.
When is nipping a concern?
If a puppy growls, freezes or bites hard in response to handling, ask your veterinarian and then a qualified trainer for help.
