Shar Pei – Training to stop biting

Dog bite problems can pose a potential danger to your dog and everyone around it, therefore it is only right that you use the most effective way to get rid of this behavior: Shar Pei training. While definitely not a miracle cure, training your dog to obey various commands is a great way to help him get rid of unpleasant behaviors like biting.

The Shar Pei, like other dog breeds, uses its mouth to examine things and interact with other dogs and their humans. And more often than not, people think it’s cute to see a puppy bite its owner’s feet or hands. But you’ll surely agree that the sight wouldn’t look pretty anymore if that pup has grown into a 50-pound adult dog.

Biting is a natural behavior among dogs and it can be difficult to get rid of this behavior completely. But luckily, there is that process called bite inhibition where it allows a dog to determine and control the force of its bite.

Start your Shar Pei training when you are playing with your puppy. If he bites you, even if you’re just playing and the bite doesn’t actually hurt, let out a high-pitched “ouch” to scare him off and interrupt him from biting your feet. Stop playing with him for a while so he realizes that the fun stops every time he bites, so he needs to stop.

If the initial process doesn’t seem to work, another option is to leave the room for a while. Despite his attempt to play you, don’t give up or look at him. This should be enough to condition his mind that biting won’t do him any good and will only cause him to lose the things he loves: you and your precious time and attention.
