How to Stop a Lab From Biting During Play

Play biting is a common problem with Labrador retrievers. Because of a Lab's large size and high energy level, even a non-aggressive bite can be painful. Play biting can be prevented by rewarding Labrador retriever puppies for being gentle with their mouths when they are playing. Training an adult dog may be a bit more challenging. Animal behaviorist Patricia McConnell says reward-based training methods are the most effective way to teach Labs not to bite during play.

Instructions

Labs get very excited during play time, making it difficult to teach them new skills. Therefore, choose a time when your dog is calm and relaxed to teach it to be gentle with its mouth.

Approach the dog with a treat. If the dog snaps at your hand to get the treat, say, "No," and wait. When your dog takes the treat gently, click the clicker to reinforce the good behavior and give the dog an additional treat as a reward.

Repeat this exercise several times each day. Your dog will gradually learn that being gentle with its mouth is the best way to get what it wants.
