How to stop my dog from biting?
ByMy Female Westie is one year old now. She always jumps up on people and bites them when she’s excited. She also has submissive urination so if i tell her to stop biting with a firm “No” , she’ll pee, so what is the best way to teach her that it’s not okay to bite people, but at the same time not make her pee everywhere?

you should try a muzzle. and if she pees when you do that, then you should train her outside so that you don’t spoil your carpet or anything.

Hi,
Mouthing is an unavoidable part of canine development. It’s how young dogs learn about their world. Fortunately, by consistently signaling to your pup that biting is unacceptable, and giving her playtime with other dogs who’ll teach her the same lesson, she’ll learn to use her jaws very gently.
