Hi Janae

My boyfriend and I have just adopted a 8 week old BB male puupy who also LOVES to use us as his chew toys even though he has plenty already.
We've started using a spray bottle with nothing but water in it with the nozzel spraying a fine mist... its working wonders!! When she bites give her a spritz and firmly say NO! Keep spritzing her, she will eventually get the picture. We were stressing about it too... I'm only 5 foot and to have him grow up chewing on me is not an option. I worship the spray bottle now. We also keep handy treats nearby, when he bites he gets a spray and a firm NO, he lets go and sits. If he stays there for longer than a minute he gets a love with a loving GOOD BOY and a doggy treat. We've never seen him so well behaved.

Hope this helps.
Sonia
