inappropriate greeting behaviour? I own a pair of German Shepherd puppies, both about two months old. They have a bad habit of greeting me and other adult "masters" by biting our legs and ankles, and tugging on clothing (sometimes causing rips in my lacy skirts). They are still small, but their bites can already break skin. How can I train this out of them before they grow large enough to cause injury?
Please note that I have a toddler who loves playing with these dogs, but this kind of excited greeting already hurts him. I can't imagine how they might hurt as they grow bigger.
