Any tips on training jack russel terrier pup not to bite?

Answers:
I have a J.Russel and whenever he does anything like that i pretend to cry and be upset and he comes and licks me and sits with me as J.Russels are very protective over their owners and hopfully he/she should stop! Good luck.

whenever he bites you
Yelp like a puppy he will soon get the message he has hurt you.
Dogs instinctively know when they have hurt you because his litter mates would yelp if he ever got to rough with them
Try it you will be suprised how much quicker it works than pointless smacking!

This question is asked almost every day. Just type in "Puppy Biting" into the Y! search bar on this forum, and there is plenty of excellent advice out there.
Bottom line, puppies bite. You have to teach them not to.

I'm afraid it's removal of teeth as far as Jack Russells go. Sorry, but they are vicious little buggers and they're supposed to be. It's the canine version of " small man syndrome".

just tap it on the norse and shout NO

I used to have 3 Jack Russell's had them from pups one has since died. Jack Russell's are puppies for 3 years and chewing anything and everything for these years is very common. A short, sharp 'no' every time they bite with a pointed finger and a tap on the nose (not a whack!) normally works but you have to do it again and again and again and again.Jack Russell's are notoriously hard to train. One of mine ate about 20 pairs of shoes before she stopped! Good Luck and enjoy, there's no more personality in any other dog which compares to a Jack Russell. A big dog in a little dogs body! :))))))

Lovely dogs, i have one myself! Full of fun and mischief and an absolute joy to own. Very, very loyal and loving, your in for a lifetime of affection! They are renowned for being nippy little bleeders but this is a ' protection ' tactic! All puppies will nip from time to time, in a playful way and grow out of it but jacks tend to keep this trait unless trained not to. Whenever it nips you, say in a loud, firm voice, NO. Move away from it and ignore it for a few minutes. It will soon learn that if it nips anyone, that person won't play with it anymore and jacks hate being ignored! It will take a few days for this ' lesson ' to sink in but it will soon get what you mean. They are surprisingly easy to teach and are very eager to learn! At this age you can teach it loads of tricks etc but get the ' manners ' training in first!

Never strike, "lightly tap", or grab at your dog's muzzle. The "YIPE!" strategy is a good one, but that "YIPE!" needs to be insanely, incredibly, unmistakeably loud. You may wish to warn other members of your family that you are going to do this.
Some dogs become overstimulated by your screaming. That's fine - you can leave out that part and simply, abruptly, and wordlessly end the game with your dog. There is no need for physical punishment - your dog will get the message after a few reps of this.

You may think this is extreme and rather funny but we've had quite a bit of experience that shows this method works. First try negative reinforcement (such as assertively saying NO). If that does not work, bite him back. Funny, I know but my husband has done that with all of our dogs and it works perfectly. Of course I am not suggesting that you bite hard. He will usually bite their nose just barely. It is risky, so be sure you know your dog and certainly proceed at your own risk but it has worked for us.

none at all-its what the little darlings do -enjoy.

whenever it bites uve got to hold its mouth shut and shout no with an angry voice and also when it bits u. uve got to make a high pitched noise.. it will soonl earn not to do it

---

Yelp like a pup sound wierd but lefts him know it hurts and also sound cruel but bite him back (obviously not to cause physical damage)

---

well puupy traing maybe good. But i think really the most important thing is being positive when he is good reward him and be frim when the dog bites n say no never hit a dog 4 biting (Not saying you would) as this would not help things at all. Why does your dog bite is it when u feed him or when around other dogs etc n watch 'its me or the dog' thatis on tv hope that helps u will prob be better of talking to ya vet tho

My way is to really growl at the pup in an angry way then turn your back on it and if it comes round to look at you turn away ,give it a few times then start to treat him as usual,do this every time he attempts to bite do this he will soon learn not to bite.
