Isletspup is a gorgeous, lovely natured pointer - full of energy and love. However, we are still getting episodes of play biting. Our trainer tells us we need to be more exciting to get her attention on us (getting her to focus on us has been a lot of hard work, but it is improving). The only downside is that when we are being more exciting, she starts the jumping and mouthing, biting at our arms, bums and coats. We turn our backs and stand still, until she she calms down, which to be fair, is within seconds. But it bloody hurts!!!!
I guess I’m either looking for some advice or just plain reassurance that things will improve soon. She is so much better in the house now, barely mouths. It’s just whilst training and doing the whole ‘look at me I’m more interesting than that bird/dog/person etc’.
