small breed or large breed?
One other thing you can do - as an adversive, is drop a soda bottle filled with coins (or something) right next to her. Does she need some crate time?

probably :)
We had to use it for a time with our black lab - he destroyed so much. (long story, but U pipe in bathroom, couch - so much damage!). I was out of options. But we haven't used it in years (we love him out and about :). Some dogs like the small space of it, so - IDK, it depends.

That is awful advice if you actually talk to anyone who knows anything about training dogs just fyi.

I learned this by playing a dog training hit on turk. My dog was the worst dog at the end of the experiment because I only used negative reinforcement.
Yeah.. dogs are pretty dumb for the most part.. They see "human is mad... so I should act sad" or they get sad ect ..

They also see if human sees couch torn up = human get mad..

None of these times is it actually helpful to punish the dog ect.

Using positive reinforcement actually works and you will end up with a better and happier dog for it.

oh. The dog trainer used it next door for our neighbors dog and it worked, but I'll keep that in mind :).

solution: don't get a stupid dog
All dogs are dumb if you try to think of them like humans.

That doesn't mean you can't love them however.. they just aren't human obviously.

Anyone know how to teach a puppy to stop biting? My arms and ankles look like I've been mauled by a bear. I sprayed that bitter apple stuff all over myself this morning because I needed a break but it wears off pretty fast.

It's been a long time since I had a puppy this young and none of the tricks that used to work with my old dogs (yelping, distracting her with toys, stop playing until she calms down) are working with the new pup so far. I don't expect her to get it instantly just something that makes her pause, a little recognition in those puppy eyes so I know she's learning before my ankles are nothing but bone lol
I know you've gotten lots of good advice, but if all else fails, I would just try to keep her active and stimulated. Lots of walks so she can explore, practicing tricks, etc. That way she'll be too busy or tired to chew on you.
