How do I get my goldendoodle puppy to STOP BITING me and everyone else?

I have a 3 month old goldendoodle puppy, and she LOVES to bite us, often to the point of breaking the skin! I tried the whole yelping really loud when she does it, and it worked the first few times... but now, she actually tries to attack me harder!

It's annoying us all because we'll be sitting down and watching TV, and she'll come and bite us. I don't know what to do anymore, I hate this so much and it hurts!

She's not being vicious; she is playing. When he bites, take hold of his skull in both hands, holding his muzzle shut. Look down into his eyes and growl at him, in as low and forceful a voice as you can manage, "NO! NO TEETH!" Then push him away and walk away. He needs to learn that biting ends the interaction with you. If he jumps and puts his paws on you, turn around fast with both arms swung wide and high over your head, to make you look HUGE, and snap, "NO! BAD DOG." Then walk away again and continue to ignore him. When he comes up to you with his ears flattened and his tailtip wagging low, then tell him he's wonderful and pet him.

get a spray bottle and fill it with water and spray her in the face with it and when she bites spray her and tell her no like you really mean it hope this helps

I had a similar question. My answers were that the pup is only playing. Mine's a jack russell terrier. but it's better if you discipline them at an earlier stage before a year.

Redirect. Have a several soft toys around and when your puppy starts to mouth and nip, put the toy in the dogs mouth. If you are persistent with this, the dog will back off. It usually doesn't want the toy crammed (gently of course) into it's mouth. This will take time. So be persistent and don't give up. Your puppy will eventually learn that when he starts to nip or mouth...he gets a toy crammed into his mouth. It's called redirecting. Goldendoodle's are very smart dogs. Good Luck :)
