| | Congratulations on your new pup! My Lab Brody is now 2 years old and I can remember well the biting and nipping, we all had bruises on the back of our knees and arms for months until we got it under control but it wasn't easy. Try turning your back on him and ignoring him, Labs hate to be ignored as they enjoy being part of the family and like the attention, failing that, leave the room and close the door for a few minutes, but make sure that when you reunite that it is friendly. These seemed to work for us but we had to persevere for a long while. We found that the more we shouted ouch! the more excited he became and nippd even more.
As for feeding, I think that you are doing the right thing at the moment. Labs are prone to put on weight easily, the packaging is very confusing.
Good luck. x |
