Say OW! very loudly to startle him. Either that or pop him on the nose when he bites. It will take awhile to train him and you will have to be very patient but hang in there and establish yourself as "head or the pack." Let him know that it is no longer allowed that he can bite and stick to that 100% and you will break his habit. You can't let him get away with biting even once or he will never learn. Just make a commitment to not waver in your training and you will come out on top. If you cannot be consistent then your dog will never be trained. Good luck!!!

Buy some sour apple spray. It is for puppies who bite they hate the taste and they stop biting normally. My dog had the habit of biting as a puppy, but we would give her a firm no and if it was a hard bite or she bit again we would pop her on the nose, but not hard just enough for her to understand no you can't do that.

If your dog bites you, just give it a firm no or yelp or ouch so it nows it her you, if the little bastard keeps biting, tie he up outside and turn your back and walk away and ignore its barking. (it mite seem cruel but eventually it will work in a couple of days)
