I just wanted to share this awesome article I found on the web regarding biting inhibition. (puppies and beyond)
http://shibashake.com/dog/puppy-biting-how-to-stop-puppy-biting
I have been struggling with Remi in his puppy stage with accidental, and intentional biting. The isolation technique I find to be most effective, and the yipping (loud and high pitched) for the accidental nip.
There are some great tips like not engaging in tug of war, and other excitable activities that may heighten any biting tendencies.
I think it's really important to read if you're having issues. It really puts your mind at ease. I was beginning to think my dog was aggressive and insane. Nope, just being a puppy!!
Enjoy.
