I am so excited to have found this board.

I have so many questions I don't even know where to start. But I did post one big concern on another thread.

We got Gabby just over a week ago(she is 5 months), and so far so great! we love her. She is amazing and very loveable, BUT with one HUGE bad habit.

Can anyone tell me if this is normal for Beagles.
When Gabby gets in a VERY playfull mood she starts to jump and bite and it hurts!
I should of called her J.H. short for Jeckel and Hide. She goes from being this extremly loveable happy go lucky puppy to a puppy no one wants to be around.
My only major concern is because I have two small children 2 & 4 years old. They get very upset when she is like this and it has come down to me having to remove her from us and either put her outside if we are inside or tie her up in the front yard so we can play peacefully in the back yard.

Please tell me this is all normal and she will grow out of it. I love her to bits but I can't have a biting dog, even if it is out of love and curiosity. The biting has to stop.

Hi Bridy. I also just got my pup also and I tried a method a co worker suggested. He mouthed me toes, which isn't bad, but then bit down hard after a while. However, I was prepared. I yelped like a hurt dog LOUD and then walked away and ignored him for 10 min. He calmed down really quick when he realized I didn't like that. So far he hasn't done anymore biting, just mouthing, but then again its only been 2 days since that happened.
