   Your dog is probally just being a puppy, my dog did that too when she   
   was younger, but we tried to get rid of that as soon as possible since   
   people often think my dog is a pit bull and I didn't want anything to   
   happen to her.  She just grew out of it on her own, now every once in a   
   while when you play hard with her she will bit but it is never hard and   
   we correct her as soon as she does it.  By the way she still isn't even   
   a year old so it wont take too long to train them.
