Try WWW.CFBA.CO.UK or WWW.GODT.ORG.UK for certified trainers and behaviourists in your area.

My puppy black lab is 12 weeks old and is absolute he'll with the play biting and snapping at me. Since we have had her at 8 weeks she has been like it. I have tried EVerything. The yelping did not help. She just came back more agressively. I have just been 'attacked' in Play again and have banished her to the kitchen with a firm no. Then I have sat down and had a good cry in the lounge. She is do good in all other ways but will not stop this biting. She is mow being put out inched kitchen regularly when this happens as it is exhausting having her attack me all the time. Interestingly when I am in the kitchen she does it less, but I still can't really stroke or love her without it turning into a bite. I am told she must have been top dog in the litter. I have recently been told to hold her in the air like a baby until she stops wriggling or fighting me but she doesn't ever stop. She just gets more and more agressive. I am so so worried. I wanted a gentle loving family pet. We cannot have visitors at the moment because of this and my 4 and 2 year old niece and nephew haven't met her yet because she would probably knock them to the floor and hurt them. I am desperate. Please do you have any tips. Please please help me. My puppy black lab is 12 weeks old and is absolute he’ll with the play biting and snapping at me.
