    My 7 month old puppy has started to bite when being told off. He mouths, which i know is normal and I divert this to a toy or bone, but when told to get down or when I grab him to put him in his crate for time out he bites me,he has also been known to go for other family members faces which is clearly unacceptable. I know Labrador puppy's are not aggressive, but I'm really unsure on how to tackle this and any suggestions would be grateful

    As soon as he does it, stand up straight cross your arms & turn your back. If this doesnt work then next time he does it, leave the room & shut the door for a minute or so. Then go back in, rinse & repeat.
