Have you ever actually tried putting a prong collar on the dog and correcting the snot out of it? It works, every time, if YOU don't screw up. The correction needs to be hard enough to leave a lasting impression in the dog's brain that such stupidity is not tolerated ever. Oh, and don't hiss at your dog like someone else said, you are not a snake, you are a human and the dog should view you as such. Hope I helped.

Positive and negative association, everytime she licks you or eats her poop make a loud hissing noise to scare/ distract her. She will soon realise that the horrible noise comes when she does these things. If you hissing doesn't work look online, they sell a hissing can for dog training. Remember to enforce positive association aswell, make her sit, treat her, when she behaves give her lots of cuddles etc. Good luck x

Eating poop is not a problem, watch the dog, then when she poops pick it up. Biting is a bad problem. The dog is bored and untrained. First - exercise exercise exercise. Tired dogs are good dogs. When the dog is biting and being crazy, stand up cross your arms, take a few steps back and turn your back to the dog. Do not say anything, do not look at the dog. Do it every time. Then look online for a certified professional dog trainer to help you. It's very much worth the expense!

Your dog is in need of serious obedience training. You need to teach her what is acceptable when living with humans. Let a professional trainer take her the basics or read about obedience training and do it yourself. To start off, you need to teach her the basic dog commands like sit, stay, lie down and come. At the same time, do crate and house training. When you start to have some control over your dog, teach her not to bite, jump or chew on things (including your arms).
