Question
I bought 2 weeks ago a maltese she is 9 weeks old, she likes to bites too much with her tiny mouth how can i teach her not to do that. do you thing that she is going to be agressive? I ask the owner of her parents and she said that they are very sweet. pls help. thank you.

Answer
Hi there, make sure she understands the firm tone of the word no~ dont smack or tap or shout as this promotes agressive behaviour say no firmkly and place in basket for 5 mins also try Raw hide it prevents biting as it helps relieve chewing habits.
Is this hepful.
Kind wishes
