Grab his muzzle, look him dead in the eye and bark or growl the word “NO!” (to put emphasis on how bad he was) than remove him from the room to be alone. Leave him there (whining or not) for 3-5 minutes. Bring him back out, keep the room light and happy (remember, now that he’s back he gets a clean slate. So no anger or frustration). If he does it again, you correct him again and remove him again.
It helps to have the person he has bitten to grab his muzzle and say no. So he knows not to bite ANYONE, not just the person he’s correcting. He should learn that this punishment will happen no matter who he bites.
you should actually try to make her bite you, and when she does, YELP, exaggerate as much as possible as if it really hurts. try to startle her with your yelping
she will soon start to think that she cannot play rough with you, as you, in her thoughts, are delicate. good luck!
Its normal for puppies to bite, that’s just normal puppy behavior, when she bites, and nips, push her away and yell NO! in a firm voice. Don’t grab or EVER hit her because that could frighten her. Every time she bites correct her by pushing her away and firmly telling her No. Never allow her to bite, or play bite because this could progress and even carry on into older ages.
If she doesn’t have chew toys by her some, and when she bites push her back and hand her a chew toy, that’s the correct thing for her to be biting on.
One, she is teething. It feels good to her to be putting pressure on her teeth and gums. Making sure she has plenty of nylabones or chew/teething toys will help.
Two, she is looking for attention. Puppies do not understand the difference between negative attention and positive attention. She knows that when she “bites”,it gets your attention and she has succeeded. In her mind, she will keep doing this.
My suggestion right now, is to play with her and offer her all kinds of loving and affection, but the moment she bites, turn your back to her. Say a firm no, but then say nothing at all for a few minutes. Resume playing. When she bites again, repeat the process.
As she ages, keep an eye on her. This may require the intervention of a professional trainer.
Personally I used to have a toy to hand and when my dogs started biting me (or my guests) then they would get a toy put in their mouth instead (not hard like shoved in or anything) so they knew they could bite that and not a person, obviously when they first bite they would be told no, firmly, but then they were attacking the toy they would be praised.
Puppies bite, very natural thing for them to do, however littermates should have taught her bite inhibition. Obviously they didn’t, so here’s a site with training articles that can help you teach her not to bite hard’

She is probably biting for a couple reasons.
One, she is teething. It feels good to her to be putting pressure on her teeth and gums. Making sure she has plenty of nylabones or chew/teething toys will help.
Two, she is looking for attention. Puppies do not understand the difference between negative attention and positive attention. She knows that when she “bites”,it gets your attention and she has succeeded. In her mind, she will keep doing this.
