Hi, I have a five month old European doberman that I got when he was 3 months old. In these past few weeks he has developed a really bad biting problem where he snarls, growls, barks and bites people in the house, especially my sister. Me ( the dogs owner ) and my sister are the main targets for this.
We’ve both tried on numerous occasions to let out a loud and sharp yelp to stop him from biting but it didn’t work
We’ve also tried redirecting him to a toy and saying no, stop and leave me alone in a firm voice. None of this has worked
We are not provoking him either, my sister could just be standing in the kitchen maybe talking to someone and he walks up and starts jumping and biting her. ( very hard biting ) we are also calm in the house too.
He gets exercise too, after a 2 hour long walk and added time playing with dogs in the dog park he still does this!
Someone please help! We have hired a trainer but they don’t seem to be doing much even though apparenlty they have 50 or so years of experience training dogs.
The picture inserts are when he was in the middle of biting me and then the one with my finger is the result of that
