Sometimes biting is good. If it's not done hard. When Farrah and I play "rough" she playbites but not hard enough to hurt. She knows how gentle to be when she's being "rough." She was never punished when learning. Better methods were used. Thank goodness she didn't give up playbiting altogether. We have too much fun and it tells me she's feeling good. (She's insulinomic.) I love it when she "bites." Did I read people are throwing water in faces to discipline or was I reading too quickly? Animals and children deserve better, more loving and more intelligent methods of discipline. I know from experience not someone else's theory. Alice [Posted in FML issue 2467]
