Why do dogs bite?
1 The dog is in its teething phase.
Dogs start to grow deciduous teeth at the age of 20, and start to change deciduous teeth at the age of 4. The gums will itch during the change of long teeth. They will bite to relieve the discomfort caused by the change of long teeth, including biting. The change of teeth lasts for 8-9 months. When the permanent teeth completely stop growing, they will slowly stop itching and the phenomenon of biting will gradually disappear.
2 The dog is playing with you.
When playing between puppies, they usually wrestle, chase and bite each other with their mouths, so when they leave their brothers and sisters and start playing with people, they are likely to bite people with their mouths, and they will think that they are playing with you.

Take his favorite food with his left hand, draw his attention with his right hand, then take it to play and let him move. If the dog bites during the play, immediately stop the game and ignore him. If it stops biting, praise and reward it, give it food, and train the dog repeatedly until it stops biting.
