ive got the biggest headache and bruising after being beaten up by Diva the other day, we were playing on the bed with a towel and she got over excited and bit the back of my head twice, once in the neck and the other on the base of my skull, it didnt really hurt at the time but JEEZE it bloody hurts now, got bruising and it feels like ive been stung by 10 wasps in the same place.
she didnt mean it but hell why cant they be born with blunt teeth to make playing easier
As cute as this all seems, you really should be firm about biting. Biting any part of your body should be strictly off-limits, but if you had to compromise, at least really try to get her to stop biting the face and head. That is the beginnings of a nasty habit.
I'm sure she didn't mean it, but puppies have no idea what they can get away with unless you let them know. Next time she bites, give a yell, put her down, and refuse to play with her or acknowledge her. After a little bit, resume play. If she bites again, repeat the process. In time, she'll understand that if she's too rough, she won't get play time with her favorite person, which is you. Puppies can either learn this quickly, or take forever, like my stupid/too smart dogs.
From what I've read, puppies, and kittens, learn this skill from their mother and their littermates, from the time they are able to really begin playing, which is at around 4-6 weeks, but this skill is not quite honed yet when most puppies and kittens come home to their owners, at 6-8 weeks, and they often make mistakes. From what I've seen, they really start responding well to this behavior at around 12-20 weeks, which is the time some breeders prefer to separate the young animal from its mother. I have noticed this behavior change in the kittens I've raised, and the behavior change is very interesting. My kittens went from playing with claws fully-extended and teeth chomping down, to gentle kneeding with no claws and the occasional light nibble or no biting at all. They learned from each other, since one kitten would cry when the other was too rough and immediately stop play. This is much better for everybody involved. You're at a disadvantage since Diva doesn't have littermates or her biological mommy to help her practice this. She only has you and your family. If everybody is consistant, which is tough to accomplish, she will easily stop this behavior.
Hope you feel better. Bites and scratches can hurt, believe me, I know. I just recovered from bathing the kittens on the 4th of July. This months bathing went much better.
llj

there is only 2 places she does it, one at the top of the stairs and one by the front door where the pads are and were. shes such and intelligent quick learning pup that i know its me doing something wrong otherwise she would have it sussed by now.
