  1. she need to learn its unaceptable and wont gain her any attention

    get help from a trainer or behaviouralist


  2. "She only BITES when people IGNORE her"

    Ok, I feel better now (if you needed reminding, there is a spell check on this site!).

    Get her into an obedience class, and give her some attention.  She needs to learn manners, and you need to learn how to spell.

  3. She probably learned that she gets attention for biting. So if she does it again, ignore her. Don't give her any attention. In fact, just get up and walk away from her. If she continues to do it OR if she's really hurting you then hire a trainer to help out.

  4. Put the dog on a leash and make her stay at your side for 48 hours.  Choose a couple of days when you can stay home for both days.  When she bites tell her no and continue to ignore her.  When she is sitting beside you being good, give praise attention and a treat.  She will eventually learn that she does not need to have all the attention all the time and that you are the pack leader or alfa .

  5. Your dog wants attention. Let me guess, when she bites the person gives in and gives her attention, right? Thats why she continues to do it because she has realized it works. You need to teach your dog that attention will be given on your terms, not hers. You are in control of that house, not her.

    Heres a site with something you need to try. It helps with dogs who bark, bite, scratch for attention. Its a 72hr project that needs to continue for life, but it will do wonders for your dog.

  6. Your dog is starving for attention. You need to teach her that she can't get everything she wants. It is just like a kid. If I am sitting on my couch watching tv, my dog will make little growling and nipping type sounds at me until I pet her. Sometimes I do, but I usually look at her and tell her NO. If she keeps doing it I make her get off the couch. Eventually she realizes she won't get her way, so she "humphs" and takes a nap.
