The dog will use their mouth and sharp little teeth to learn about the environment they live in. The most common reasons for your puppy to be biting you are:. Since your Pom does have sharp teeth, you can get hurt with those quick and uncontrolled nips.
But, even if your Pom bites you, it is not done out of spite. If your little Pom tries to nibble your fingers or toes, this means the puppy is teething and wants to soothe the discomfort of growing teeth. But it could also mean that your puppy is injured or sick. However, if your Pom keeps biting you despite your best efforts to teach them not to and growls very often, you need to train them quickly. Here I will take a closer look at all of these common reasons and what you can do to fix them.
This is typical behavior for puppies at the age of 4 to 9 months. Your puppy will bite other puppies to play with them, and bite you as you try to pet them. Your Pomeranian does this because the puppy wants to nibble on something to ease the pain and discomfort from growing milk teeth. First, you need to demonstrate to your puppy that biting hurts.
So, you need to start training them immediately. Here is how you can do it. When your Pom approaches you in an effort to bite your finger, you should give them a time out.
Then, move away from your little puppy and ignore them for an entire minute. If they approach to bite you again, leave the room for an additional minute. As those disappear, do this for his next hardest bites. Persist with him in the process of yelping and ignoring him until he stops biting completely. As per the reports every year there are million cases of dogs biting humans. The most common reasons include stress, illness, and other environmental factors. There are few tips listed below that will help your dog to grow into a safe and happy animal.
For most of the puppies biting each and everything that comes their way is normal. Puppy bite is natural for pups and is one of the ways for them to learn and explore things. Training your pup at an early age to stop biting is easier as compared to an adult dog. Every dog has a personality of its own and may behave differently in different situations. Your dog might feel threatened or stressed due to which he can bite other people. Sometimes your dog bites to save his territory from an invader which is an inherent characteristic in them.
Providing a safe and secure environment to them is the most effective way to curb dog biting. Besides acting as a population control mechanism, getting your dog neutered helps reduce control of their desire to bite. For male dogs, this helps reduce testosterone levels and leads to less aggression. Generally, male dogs should be neutered before they reach the age of eight weeks and female dogs before the start of the first heat cycle.
When a dog feels threatened, he may pounce upon someone that he considers a threat. To avoid such a situation you should learn the body language of the animal to know when they feel threatened. Some of the signs include shaking of the body, tucking tails between their rear legs, lowering their head, or an attempt to flee.
Once you see that your dog is showing any of these body movements you must shift your dog to a place where they are at ease. If your dog still shows aggressive behavior, you may follow certain things to avoid being bitten. Just step away slowly from the Dog to avoid any conflict.
For the safety of yourself and the people around you, learn about the behavior and personality traits of your pet. The more you learn, the safer you and others will feel when playing with your dog. Occasionally one Pomeranian bites another one a bit too hard. The good news is that this never lasts long and they dive back into the game again. This type of mixed interactions help teach pups that they must control the force of their bites so none of them get hurt and they can get back into playing quickly.
If your Pom puppy is attempting to nibble on your toes or fingers, give him a chew bone or some other toy he can chew on without harm. If you pet him and he wakes up more, break that feeing by giving him a few little treats using your other hand. Teach your Pomeranian puppy some non-contact games for example — tug-of-war , instead of using your hands to wrestle with him.
If he can tug safely, keep some tug toys within reach or even in your pocket so if the mouth opens, you fill it with a toy.
Perhaps your puppy nips your ankles and feet. If so, stop moving and remove the hidden tug toy from your pocket and tease him until he grabs it. If your pockets are empty, stop moving.
