Puppy nipping is natural so there is absolutely no need to punish. Do not pinch the lips or hold the snout closed, and please do not hit your puppy. When your puppy bites, slowly remove your hand and swap it with a toy or other item that can safely be chewed. Puppies grow out of the nipping/biting stage as they get older.

How do you get a beagle puppy to stop biting you?

Unfortunately, hounds in general tend to be chewers - ask anyone with a basset in particular. It tends to be a lifelong trait. As for biting you in particular, they ought to grow out of it. Scolding it IMMEDIATELY when it has nipped you with a firm "No!" is often effective. There is absolutely no need to punish such behaviour in a puppy by tugging/pulling on its lips, biting back, shouting or hitting - all this will do is teach the puppy to become defensive and possibly scared, which ultimately may make the biting worse.
