We've had our Newf (Tika) for 1.5 weeks now and I'm pleased to say that she's already doing great with being house broken. Our only major concern right now is that she bites. We've gone from sticking a chew toy in her mouth to saying no, and moved on to holding her mouth closed (in a mothering way like the vet showed us).
All seemingly to no avail. She's still biting. Bites our hands, arms, and sometimes yanks on our clothing. We're using the Bitter Apple stuff (sometimes seems to work).
I don't want our lil Tika to be an unsafe dog when she's older so we need to break her of this and soon. I do realize that she's teething (12 weeks old) but biting ppl is not acceptable.
