What is Puppy Biting or Nipping?
Puppy biting is a natural behaviour where young dogs use their mouths to explore their environment, play, and teethe.
Why Puppies Bite
Puppies bite as part of play, to relieve teething discomfort, or to test boundaries. Without guidance, this behaviour can continue into adulthood.
How to Stop Puppy Biting
Teaching bite inhibition, redirecting to chew toys, and using a firm "no" or yelping when bitten help puppies learn appropriate mouth manners.
