What to do if a Labrador bites people
Labrador Retriever (Detailed Introduction)

        We all know that Labradors are very gentle dogs, and they show great friendliness to both their owners and strangers. Therefore, under normal circumstances, they do not bite. However, improper training methods from the owner may sometimes cause this behavior. So what to do if a Labrador bites people, and how to train it?

        First, you need to make it clear that you are the more dominant figure. Use a leash to tie it up, and when it tries to attack others, loudly scold it. If it does not listen, you can gently tap it with a training stick.

       During feeding, you can place the food inside a cage and then close the cage door, letting the dog sniff outside. After a while, when the dog feels frustrated and is about to give up, you appear and take the food out to place it in front of the dog. At this moment, it will understand that some things it must rely on you to achieve. This training can effectively curb its aggressiveness. This is a practical method summarized by a famous American zoologist after long-term experiments.

       After some time of this training, you can try to take it out on a leash. When you meet people familiar to you, you can stop and shake hands with them, letting it understand that these are the people the owner likes and should not be offended. At the same time, often let it play with dogs of the same kind. At first, it is best to keep it on a leash to prevent it from attacking other dogs. When it desires to play with them and has no aggressive intent, you can release the leash.

       Nowadays, dogs live with humans, but when they are under mental stress or fear, they can still bite. If a dog bites and then acts affectionately to the owner and is indulged, when it grows up it will think it is the stronger party. Without strict discipline, this will develop into a biting habit. It is very dangerous for dogs to bite people, so it should be warned from a young age that biting is not allowed, and make it understand that the owner is the stronger party, cultivating its sense of obedience.
