The best way to prevent a dog from biting is to establish clear boundaries and rules for your pet. Make sure they are not allowed to roam freely around the house, yard or neighborhood without supervision. Provide them with plenty of exercise, playtime and mental stimulation to keep them occupied. Teach them basic obedience commands such as “come”, “sit” and “stay”. Establish a consistent behavior-modification program that rewards good behaviors and discourages bad ones. Finally, if you suspect that your dog may be aggressive towards other animals or people, consult a veterinarian or animal behavior specialist for advice on how to manage their behavior.
