Here's how to teach your pup not to bite:

When your puppy puts his teeth on you, say "No" and walk away. Go get him a toy, give it to him, and when he takes it, say "Good boy". If your puppy continues to bite your leg, your pants, or your hands, put him outside, in a crate, or a pen, until you think he's calmed down. Try again later.

Teach your puppy how to take a treat from your hand when he is very young:

Hold out your open hand. Put the treat in the palm of your hand. Let your dog take the treat from your hand. Don't hold a treat between your fingers because some dogs will accidentally grab your fingers with the treat.

Many babies love dogs, but they should never be left alone together.
