Why does my puppy bite? Build a bite plan that teaches gentle mouths

Puppy teeth hurt, but biting is a normal part of how puppies play and learn. This guide explains why puppies mouth, what to do instead of telling them off, and how to build a plan that fits what your puppy is doing and how old they are.

Pick a situation, set your puppy's age, and get a calm, reward-based plan: toys, short breaks and safe chews. It also covers teething and when to ask a vet or a qualified, kind trainer.
