First bite

 First bite

Received my first bite from the girls last night that actually drew blood. It was from Jennie but not from her being scared, they had treats throughout the tent and she gave me two "exploratory" bites then she bit down.... I think she thought my finger was a snack, I pulled back from reaction but not too concerned because it wasn't a defensive bite. Surely hope that was the last time lol.

Thanks britty, yeah I've started to learn my girls biting seems to be almost like there trying to figure out where my fingers end lol. Toodles has bit my on the arm but I think it was a smell cause she kept going to the same spot. This one just started the crap out of me but I do count myself blessed because there adopted and I have yet to deal with aggression (scared) biting

I went through the same thing with both males. My oldest used to bite me quite frequently but it was never aggressively. I learned that they bite for a lot of different reasons I think they do it to help them discover things a little better. Mine still do bite on occasionally but it is a lot less than it used to be if that gives you any hope!
