Lesson 2: Bite Inhibition That Actually Works

NEW - CANE CORSO

Duration: 5:44 | Cane Corso Puppy - Soft Mouth Training

What You Will Learn:

If your Cane Corso puppy is biting your hands pants or kids you are not alone. This lesson teaches the 3 step Yelp Freeze Redirect method that works in 14 days without punishment.

The 3 Step Method:

Step 1 - The Yelp: The second you feel teeth say OUCH loud and high like a puppy yelp. Not angry just surprised.

Step 2 - Freeze and Withdraw: Go limp. Stop moving. Pull attention away for 3 seconds. No eye contact. Hard bite ends the fun.

Step 3 - Redirect: After 3 seconds give them something they ARE allowed to bite. Tug rope bully stick frozen Kong. Say yes get your toy. When they bite the toy praise calmly good boy.

Why This Is Critical For Cane Corso:

In 6 months that mouth will be 700 PSI. We have to teach now that human skin is off limits. Keep a tug toy in every room.

What NOT To Do:

Do not pull your hand away fast - that makes them chase and bite harder. Do not smack their nose or hold their mouth shut - that creates hand shy dogs. Every person in the house must do the same 3 steps every time for 2 weeks.

Your Homework:

Practice 10 to 15 times a day for 14 days. When puppy gets bitey they are overtired - put them in crate for nap. By day 7 softer mouthing. By day 14 hard biting gone.
