I posted about a week ago about my 4 month old puppy and her biting problem and learining how to crate train and barking.. LIke I said before I know its normal for her to nibble and bark but its starting to get really bad and she doesnt take me serious when I tell her no she just looks at me and keeps doing it.. I tried spraying waters bottles, a firm No/stop , a newspaper rolled up, ignoring her if you bites again after the first no, and even yipping like a mother dog and walking away.. Im not giving up on her becasue i would never do that but she is the only puppy I ever had to give me this much trouble... she gets her raibes shot this week, someone told me it might also calm her down a lil bit. Will it? If she hangs around more dogs will she calm down a little? any thing eles I can do for barking and biting but mainly biting.I want to put her in training classes at pet smart but I dont think they help biting problems...Ple ase help!!!

I'm not so sure about the rabies shot calming her down...
The training classes are a great idea!
Puppy Preschool at Petsmart is a very good program & also reasonably priced. They will be able to instruct you on all kinds of training aids! I had 2 dogs "graduate" from it & was pleased witht he results. ;)

Maybe for the day but a vaccine should never change a puppies personality permanently.

The old saying goes... a tired dog is a good dog. So yes playing hard with well mannered, good natured dogs will make her calmer on those days.
