Hi, I know this topic has been covered over and over but we just got a puppy, a Saint Bernard, and she's 9 and a half weeks and we've had her for almost 6 days. She's great, but she bites very hard, and has temper tantrums daily. We've tried a lot so far, saying no, yelping, time outs, giving her other toys and praising her when she lets go, and covering our hands with the bitter apple, but it just doesn't work. I know it seems really early to expect anything, but she's started biting harder today. We play with her a lot and take her out for 15 min fast-paced walks but that only hypes her up more.
Any suggestions?
