    I'm not sure what's OK. When Bella and I get into a good play session, she starts biting. It doesn't hurt, and she's not trying to make it hurt--but she's definitely biting. I don't like it...at all. So, I make her stop. But, is it normal for a dog to bite during play, or should I always correct...
