Hi all
My baby is so cute, She is nearly 3 months. Most of the time she is very playful and loves to snuggle up to us when she is sleeping. However this last week she is biting us a lot and is more aggressive than usual. She has lots of toys and things to chew on. I socialise her a lot and take her out and about all the time. She is great with new people.
Has anyone else had this biting problem or know what I can do, if anything. Maybe I just have to put up with it, I don't know...

Is she biting or mouthing?

Is she biting? snapping? or is she just "mouthing" your hand like she would another puppy?

I just bought the chihuahua handbook and it was telling signs of playful biting and aggressive biting. it seems like it's going to be pretty helpful.

I would be careful putting your hands near her mouth. Everytime she bites tell her no and give her a chew toy. The earlier you stop it the easier it will be :roll:

That's what worked w/ Mikey. He has a lot of chew things to choose between. I never had a problem w/ him chewing on furniture or anything.. luckily. lets hope it stays that way.

Thanks guys.
I think sometimes its playful biting but other times its definitely more aggressive. I used to tell her NO when she did 'naughty' things and she would always stop, now she just ignores me. Also, when i used to call out 'baby' she would always come running. Now she ignores me and just runs to her feeding place and looks at me. Even when she's just be fed... Any ideas anyone?
Thanks
