[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, and I just posted in the forum about his ongoing biting and growling and if there are any methods I haven't tried to help with that! Spoiler alert: I've tried all the "gentle" methods for a month.[/quote]
The problem is likely that you are trying 'all' of them instead of being consistent with one. Also, a month isn't enough time . Your puppy is a baby puppy, not a rebellious teenager or a smart allecky adult dog . Your other post gives it's current age as 12 weeks .  If you are considering resorting to physical punishment for a 12 week old puppy, please reconsider and consult an actual expert, in person, and actually follow the advice that you are given.  You sound like you may be in over your head.[/quote]

Plus I don't know what kind of doodle you got, most of the ones I've met were not the sharpest tool in the box (read - takes longer to learn anything) and kinda neurotic; I wouldn't do any physical corrections on a nervous puppy, it's a recipe for disaster [/quote]

You can review training videos from well-known trainers with decades of experience online. 90 percent recommend some sort of physical touch or at least holding their collars to stop rough biting. Then when they know what not to bite (skin), you present them with what they can bite (toys). [/quote]
