Biting, nipping and mouthing - Many people assume that these behaviors are because the dog is
teething or they just don't know how to play appropriately.  This is actually a social behavior that
dogs will do to help them establish the "pack order" of the family.  So, these problems usually stem
from the puppy or dog not knowing his rightful place in the pack order.  For adult dogs, this
program is usually pretty easy to eliminate.  For puppies, it seems to be a relatively "normal" thing
for puppies to do, but is not something that should be allowed as dogs don't always grow out of
the habit.
Note: If your dog is biting aggressively, such as in response to you doing something that your dog
is obviously unhappy with (like coming near their food or taking something away from them), then
this problem is discussed under "
Aggression".  

These unwanted behaviors are just some of the things that we can quickly resolve in any of our
dog
training programs at our facility in Eastern PA.
