Aggression With 7 Month Old Australian Shepherd Puppy

by Matt
(Philadelphia)

Every time I have company over my 7 month old Australian Shepherd will bite them. I am not sure of why but once she broke skin while my brother was leaving the group. I am not sure of how to handle this situation because I want her to be good with people and not scare them.

Discouraging biting behavior
by: Anonymous

When she bites or mouths too much, say no very firmly and turn your back and ignore her for a while. Tell guests to do this, too. Works well if you are consistent with it. They are smart and catch on fast.
