I must admit I don't envy you at all. Now Vinny is in his teenage phase the blood loss has eased and if he does put more pressure on me than he should he is so apologetic afterwards. Its gone from 'scalpel' to 'sledgehammer'. But the good news is that all of these things pass and you are one step closer to the calm obedient dog you thought you may have when you started out.

Yes, once you are past the blood letting stage you quite forget how bad it was. Kira seemed to suddenly stop biting at 6 months. One week she was Sharky and the next week a different dog had taken her place.

Vinny likes to 'hold' you in his mouth and that's ok but when he gets very excited just holding becomes a bit tighter, i know this as I am a bit like that myself, my hand grip will get harder the longer I have whatever it is in my hand.

The new favourite is to do a bite-by! He'll zoom past and nip as he passes you and zoom off again 😂 hurts like hell and he finds it so amusing 😂 Will be nice when he grows out of it eventually but it's hilarious the ways he comes up with to get us 😊

Just keep a toy in your hand or close by that you can redirect him. We always kept small toys out of reach on the table, work tops etc so that we could release our flesh!!! Loose trousers and thick socks as well. Leggings are no protection. Forget about slippers with bobbles and ties, although slippers like boots are great just cut the dangly bits off. Chris obviously has his own agenda....!!

Oh yes, there are always toys handy 😂 he loves jeans, baggy trousers and socks, especially dressing gowns, great fun to grab those and see what the strange two legged creatures do 😅 The slippers went into hiding beforebwe picked him up at least 😂 We picked him up a little Christmas bow tie today, I think I have died of cute!

He's got that look of 'What the hell are you doing to me'. I love the 'Bite by' i had quite forgotten about that.
