We thought things had improved from the puppy biting phase. We worked with a trainer, who was excellent and we made some real progress.
But in the last few weeks she has got so much worse. Whenever we take her for a walk, both on and off lead, she will suddenly turn and jump, bite, pull and lunge at us biting. If we fold arms and turn our backs she bites bums and legs! Now she has adult teeth it is really painful. I am covered in bruises and she has drawn blood a few times.
She looks like a police dog hanging off our arms. The distraction and calming techniques-throwing treats on floor for her to sniff and find, isn't working.
Today I had to call DH to come and fetch us as I couldn't get anywhere, she was constantly jumping, biting, lunging.
We play games with her, do enrichment, but it doesn't seem to help.
Any suggestions?
