Just been out in the garden with the 12 week old puppy, playing quite happily when all of a sudden he just got far too excited and started going for my legs with his little pirhana teeth and claws. Just wouldn't stop and, as he's so small, it's really hard to 'walk away from him' as there's a strong chance you'll stand on him. Result is my legs are shredded (plasters will be required).
Aside from looking a mess, the bit that has affected me the most though is that I just didn't know what to do to get him to stop. He was really hurting me and I was getting so frustrated and really losing patience. Scared the crap out of me to be honest as I just don't know what to do with him. DH is away and with limited contact until sunday so it's just the two of us til then. I know he's just a puppy and learning his bite inhibition but this was horrid. Feel to overwhelmed by it all.
Has anyone got any suggestions? I need to get him to stop but in a constructive way. Frankly, at this point in time, moral support would work wonders!
