What a mouthing plan usually includes
- Rotating chew toys so the right thing is always within reach.
- Calmly ending play for a moment when teeth touch skin.
- Nap schedules, since overtired puppies bite more.
- Short games with a toy rather than hands for tug and chase.
- Guidance for children, who often trigger the wildest nipping.

Good questions
Before you begin.
Is nipping a sign of an aggressive puppy?
Usually not. It is how young puppies explore. If it seems extreme or comes with stiff body language, tell your veterinarian and a trainer.
Should I hold my puppy's mouth shut?
No. That can frighten a puppy and damage trust. Redirect to a toy instead.
When does it stop?
It tends to ease as adult teeth come in, but only if you teach alternatives along the way.
How can children help?
Teach children to stay calm, stand still and hand the puppy a toy. A trainer can coach the whole family.
