When they are with their littermates and any adults, during play when they bite to hard, the one getting bite will scream at the biter… and adults will strongly correct... this is when they learn "soft" bite... so sounds like your Rocco did not get this... This happens if removed from the adults and/or other littermates too early... So as stated, all play stops... also, I suggest that if the bite is too hard, scream/yell very loud and then stop all play

Now that I actually own a B, I thought I ought to join in the forum fun and that way I don't have to speak through Nicole's account any longer. I am my own online ego now.
Aries, our recent adopted Basenji, is doing well and adjusting well to our pack.
Cheers,
Rob

@Clay, that would be great. I am looking forward to getting some ring time with her this spring.
@Dan, Thanks!

How big is she Rob? Anymore pics?

She is a bit on the heavy side (but we don't tell her that) around 25lbs.
