What age does a puppy stop biting?

Puppies do bite because they are teething, but they also bite in play. And biting tends to start in earnest once the puppy has settled into their new home, so around 9 weeks old. With some exceptions, puppy biting will stop by the time your puppy has his full set of grown up teeth at 7 months.

How do u train a puppy not to bite?

When you play with your puppy, let him mouth on your hands. Continue play until he bites especially hard. When he does, immediately give a high-pitched yelp, as if you're hurt, and let your hand go limp. This should startle your puppy and cause him to stop mouthing you, at least momentarily.

How do I get my puppy to stop biting my hands and feet?

When you're just getting started, you can discourage your puppy from biting your hands or feet by crying out in a high pitched “ow!” when you're bitten. Allow your hand or foot to go limp and stop playing for a moment. (Make sure not to yank your hand away, however, or your pup may think it's a game.)

Why is my puppy biting me aggressively?

The most common one is that they're curious, and this is another way to explore their world. They're also likely to chew things if they're teething as a way of relieving the discomfort. They may also nip playfully at each other or you from time to time.
