If you puppy is biting your ankles, try dragging a tug toy on the floor so they target that instead. Another way to stop puppy biting is to encourage the puppy to follow you, with his eyes looking up, while you reinforce the behavior with food. This can also double as a foundation for teaching your puppy to walk on a loose leash. If your puppy seems unable to respond and continues to bite, they may be overly tired. Put them in their crate or designated area with a treat to encourage them to nap. Featured Image: Adobe/Lubo Ivanko
