This week seems to have gotten real bad!! :( she won't redirect and if she does she'll come right back and grab my leg. The same goes with treats, she'll eat the treat then back to biting. And it's so strong. Sometimes I feel bad because I try not to move and it pierces my skin and my instinct is to kick out my leg and sometimes I kick her off with it and it makes me feel horrible. Not that it stops her or anything, she goes back to bite my leg. I don't know what to do anymore. She's ruined 4 pants already. My thighs are shreds.

So far, we've practiced targeting and now she likes but again, she starts getting either excited or cranky and will start biting my leg. Sometimes I rather not remove my work uniform because its long and I wear boots. When I'm around in anything loose she will grab it and tug. I try to redirect her attention but it seems she's so focused on whatever it is I'm wearing and not the chew toys. She likes playing with the flirt pole and that does keep her busy. Sometimes her teeth get stuck on my clothing and if I move, it'll yank her and she starts whining but will attack again. It's been a painful 2.5 weeks for my legs.

Thank you, just ordered a flirt pole. Hope that will help. My arms, legs and clothes are suffering.

She’s a 9 week old goldendoodle. Has so much energy, we play games and she’ll be fine and snap all of a sudden and starts nipping. She constantly has something in her mouth when she’s not in her crate. I walk her 3 times a day.

I’ve tried for 3 days doing the brain exercises and what to do to stop the nipping. It seems as though it’s getting worse, she bites down with more strength. It’s really hurting me, I don’t know what else to do. She opened my thumb, an inch long. Help.
