The answer given below is absolutely NOT the way to do it. If in doubt, ask a professional animal behaviorist.
What is totally WRONG with the answer below is that many people still do it. They think that giving a negative feedback provides a positive result. This is absolutely the wrong thing to do. If you want positive results, then give positive feedback.
The method explained below requires that dogs can think in terms of reward and punishment that is longer than three seconds. They cannot do that. So when you are punishing them, they have not a clue why you are being mean to them. If they may appear to you to be doing less of the behavior is because they are avoiding you or just doing nothing because they are afraid of punishment.
That is not training, that is abuse. All they learned is that they cannot trust you, so they do what they think you want them to do.
Well I squeeze my puppy's snout because his teeth will scratch his gums to
show him how hard he's biting and how it hurts us. We do it until he squeals to
make sure he really felt it and we're not just closing his mouth. This will only stop
biting for a bit but instead of the puppy biting until it's say 1 year old the pup
may stop at 8 months if you keep doing this.
Also: you might try to offer an old shoe or something else to chew on.
Of course, any animal will bite in self defense.
will not
You can not hit a dog! No matter what size it is DO NOT hit a dog! If the dog bit you it is not the dogs fault. Its yours. A dog is not as smart as a human. And they need a way to defend themselves. If you want a dog to learn not to bite andthey still do DO NOT hit them just give them a tap on the nose so that they know its wrong. Trust me with this info I am the number 1 animal person in the universe.
Not really. A dog submissive to his owner normally does not bite his owner. An abused dog, a dog that sees himself as pack leader instead of follower, or a dog that has been pushed to the point that he attacks will bite.
No dog breed has a bite that exerts 48000 pounds of pressure per square inch. In fact, no animal in the world has a bite that hard. I believe crocodiles have the strongest bite in the world, and among dogs, bite pressure per square inch averages around 320 pounds.
because they are cleaning them self's by getting the dirt off
Yes, in self-defence.

No, a dog bite is not poisonous.
It would be a terrible idea to bite a guard dog. They bite back, and their teeth are bigger than yours.
what is meaning of the silent dog is the first to bite
a coyote is a wild dog do it looks like a dog bite
Confess and take the consequences. And, do not ever do it again--you are training your dog to bite if you do.
A trusting dog.
The bite of a mad dog can cause Rabies (or Hydrophobia) followed by death.
