Our mini schnauzer is now 20 weeks old and we are making no progress with the biting, if anything she is getting worse.
My 6 year old takes the brunt of it, I assume because puppy thinks she's another puppy for her to play with. We've taught dd that when puppy is jumping up at her she should just stand still cross her arms across her chest and look up, so making no eye contact or interacting. At first this was working as puppy would just get bored after a few moments and then leave her alone. Now though she is getting more and more out of control and keeps jumping up at dd and tugging on her clothes. She has a mad period in the evenings where I can't control her at all, can't even get her to stop biting me and have to put her in another part of the house until she calms down.
She doesn't bite hard, but those puppy teeth can really hurt. Any advice to get on top of this would be much appreciated.
