The best way to prevent a dog from biting is to establish and maintain a consistent, calm, and assertive body language. Avoid direct eye contact with your dog, as this can be perceived as aggressive or confrontational. Speak calmly and firmly to your dog in a low-pitched voice when they are exhibiting signs of aggression. Make sure you remain in control of the situation by backing away slowly if necessary. Finally, provide plenty of exercise, socialization, and mental stimulation for your dog so that they don’t have time to focus on biting behaviors.
