Correcting Pet Ferret Biting: Part 2

Hi my name is Sarah and on behalf of expertvillage.com, I am here at Petland in Pembroke Pines, Florida to educate you a little bit today about caring for your ferret. If your ferret is biting and you would like to correct the biting behavior, what you need to do is scruff your ferret until it relaxes and stops biting and then put it down. If you play with your ferret again and it bites again, you want to scruff your ferret. This basically tells your ferret that he or she is doing something that you don’t want them to do. So keep repeating that until your ferret does not do the biting behavior anymore. If the biting behavior continues, you should contact a ferret rescue group in your area or a ferret veterinarian to see if they have any tips or tricks that might help. If you would like any more information about the animal hospital that I work at, you can go to www.extracareanimalhospital.net and if you would like anymore information about Petland in Pembroke Pines, you can go to www.petland.com.
