for context, 16week old female golden, got her at 13 weeks, teething like crazy right now.
our girl Lucy genuinely will not stop biting me, my shirt sleeves, my leggings, and blankets around me. it’s mostly during her evening witching hour or in the morning to be fair, but absolutely nothing deters it. she won’t trade for a toy, saying “ah ah” doesnt work, if i hide my hands she goes for my sleeves, if i stand up she’ll leap off the couch for my shirt or leggings or switch to biting a blanket. also worth noting that this is not a bite and release, she clamps down on my sleeves or the blankets. absolutely nothing deters her. she also rarely does this to my boyfriend and even then it’s only when he pulls her off me. she gets plenty of toys, frozen lick mats + kongs, etc.
for anyone who has an excessive chomper, what do you do to either discourage inappropriate biting and/or to encourage them to release?? my boyfriend is gone for 2-3 days at a time twice a week for work so I’m home alone with her half the week and it’s starting to drive me nuts lol
