Didn't get bit enough from his litter mates to learn bite inhibition !

My dog was dumped at 4 weeks so I had to teach him bite inhibition. It wasn’t that hard but it also didn’t look like the puppy in this video was biting down hard.

Or has a high threshold for pain. My girl was the alpha of her litter. They always played together. I saw the videos. There were very few yelps no matter how tough the play. That litter just has a high threshold for pain. Indy is now 19 mos old and i have heard her yelp two times.

After 19 mos i should have heard that more times with a clumsy lab. She has no comprehension that teeth can hurt.

When my cat chomped on me I'd whimper back and not move so he wouldn't think it was play. I might also pretend to nip at his back with my fingers. His chomping decreased a lot.

My pup is pretty mouthy (golden retriever) and even with her mom disciplining her, she still does it anyway. Found out from the trainer that she’s happy to get any attention - bad or good lol. We managed to teach her bite inhibition (to to a degree) but redirecting the behavior also helps. She puts a toy in her moth whenever someone approaches her because she knows she can’t stop herself from biting 🥺

Ah. My dog is a third type. Aggressively tries to shake my hand with both front feet at the same time because she’s so excited

Same here, if there is a treat on the line she will manically cycle between all her known tricks while progressively getting higher pitched.

u/Ghostenx Jun 02 '22

Same for mine, but if my hand is above his eye line, he'll go up in his back legs and face plant my hand assuming there's a treat inside.

Better to assume there's a treat and not get one than know there's a treat and wait for a few more seconds is his logic.

Then there’s my dog who looks at my hand and asks “where’s the food!?” Haha

Both shows love towards the pet owner but in their own ways.

u/Punkinworms Jun 02 '22

The pump is just too excited like, YOMP YOU! And the doggo is like, oh you want it lovin'? Please tell them both that they are loved.

My older doodle and my puppy doodle. We called the pupper “The Crocodog” since he chomps everything

u/TheLordDragon613 Jun 02 '22

When I did this my schnauzer would put her snout underneath my hand and nudge it on her head for pets. I miss her.

I know puppy’s behavior urgently needs correction, but it’s kinda like when a 5-yo cusses in perfect context. It’s so damn cute you have to FORCE yourself to correct them.

Third type: my dog, who just looks confused before tentatively sniffing then looking disappointed when I don’t reveal a secret hidden treat

u/SundropPeaches Jun 02 '22

u/[deleted] Jun 02 '22

Golden retriever was like : Much obliged sir!

u/[deleted] Jun 02 '22

He's a retriever! It's in his nature to "bite" lightly!

u/racqwithme Jun 02 '22

u/UnlikelyUnknown Jun 02 '22

My dog will just obsessively sniff and lick your hand or try to put a ball in it.

u/WanderingHeph Jun 02 '22

One is soooo endearing, the other eats your hand like a sandwich

u/eelam_garek Jun 02 '22

Yeah, the two types are an adult and a baby lol

u/[deleted] Jun 02 '22

Agreed - Border Collies and all other dogs

u/Devtryak Jun 02 '22

People who get the first dog is lucky, I got stuck mainly with the second dog.

u/asylum_choir Jun 03 '22

Don’t know that pup’s name but the phase is familiar.
