Hello,
I am new to this forum and would like to start a post about possible hard mouthed dogs.
What would be best to train a 9 month old ESS on, a tennis ball or a harder ball?
He has a tendancy to bite down on the ball upon delivery. Running back he is fine, just holds the ball but when i ask him to sit he starts to bite down, not enough to break the ball though. If i stroke his chest he will sit calmly, but just on praise he still bites down.
Is this down to anxiety? If so what would be best to do? I dont make too much of a fuss over him to try and keep him calm, however he is very excitable and keen!
Would this improve in time?
any advice would be great
