Hi everyone! I have posted on here before and gotten some Very helpful advice so im wondering if anyone can help me again with a new(ish) issue.

What i really need kodi to do is stop biting. I tried the puzzle box game with him and it didnt really work. It seemed to make him more excited. Ill keep trying it though and see how it goes. He bit my sister today a drew blood. Im not sure what else to do =( It is quite litterally my mom and sister...

Manbestfriend Yea he jumps up the sofa (just front paws, hes not completly on the sofa) and he will snap at my face with a small bark aswel. If its not my face, itl be my arms or hands, and when hes down itl be my feet. He has broken skin before (but thats also because when he bit, we pull away) and...

Hi shalista and nettle! Very good advice thankyou both!! One thing that confuses me about Kodi though is that we never played with hands, hes always had lots of toys to play with.

Hi Misodog Thankyou for your reply! I have seen that video of the husky and we have tried many times to send him out the room but as soon as he comes back in he is the same so we send him out again. This is repeated so many times and eventually he does calm down. But after hes had a nap, hes back to...

Thankyou for the replies! He has breakfast at 7.30, he goes outside and play to burn some energy. I go to work (out for 5 hours at most) he has lunch at 1.30. Outside again for play. We go for a walk which is about 25 minutes (wev been told not to take him on long walks by both trainers) he has his ...

Hi Im really hoping someone on here can help! I have a 5 month old japanese akita and he wont stop biting. He bites when i try to fuss him, he bites when you walk past him, he will walk into the living room and just come and bite someone for no reason at all, and he bites when he is being told off (...
