when dogs bite owners.  I have a Peckineese/ShitZu Mix.  He loves me to death.  Has seperation anxiety.  Goes to work with me every day.  BUUT, when he doesn't want to be touched for some reason.  He will snap at me.  Today he was licking his paw constantly and when I went to touch it to see what was wrong he growled and bit me and broke the skin on my finger.  I was devastated.  I wouldn't let him near me for several hours.  Reprimanded him, but I did cry to think he would do it to me.  What should I do if anything.  I know they say after a short time dogs won't know what they are being punished for so I let it go.

My best advise is to watch the shoe It's me or the Dog. Victoria Stillwell has been a dog trainer 10 yrs now and is wonderful. But honestly she see's this all the time. The dog is just that a DOG not a child and when you treat them like a spoiled child, that is what they turn into.

Asked: Insect bites

I just sat outside for a couple of hours with my parents and I got bit to heck! I can't stop itching and of course I have no benadryl. What can I use to stop the itching? The bites are on my feet!

Asked: Does

Does "mouthing" in a puppy indicate a tendency to bite later on in life? I love poodles but if they are biters I cannot deal with that since I have young grandchildren to consider.

I had a bad habit of biting my nails for years and now that I don't bite my nails I've caught myself biting my cuticals and the skin around my nails. Any suggestions on how to chunk this nasty habit?
