We've tried yelping like puppies at her, that works for a little while but once she gets used to the sound she ignores you. And we've of course tried just telling her "no" or "leave it".
Any other suggestions on how to stop or redirect a teething berner?
Thanks!
We taught Ollie to fetch a toy, he does it without thinking most times now except when we arrive home from being out and he is really excited.
If we just remind him he does it straight away, we use to turn our backs on him and fold our arms and say no very firmly when his teeth made contact with us.
You have to be firm and consistent and remember plenty of praise and fuss when she gets it right.
