HI, I have a 11 week golden retriever and he is in the biting stage.

He has chewing toys but mostly at night he wants to bite me more than his toys. So I redirect him each time to a chew toy sometimes it works. So what i have done is play tough of war with a rope toy and try to keep my hands away from mouth. Is this the correct way. He is also putting his paws on my lower counters and I tell him down and I put him down. I have him in beginners training for 6 weeks and if this does not help and I am thinking of get a trainer to come to my house.

This is so frustrating and I want a good behavior dog that listen. Am I doing he right thing? Hey Margaret, good questions!
