the good work. I think that when they bite the glove, they don't like how it tastes...and that further teaches them that biting is a no-win situation. Does he calm down pretty well for you after a few minutes? One final note: Since he is still pretty

Actually, he's kinda the opposite. He tends to be better at first, and then about 15 minutes he'll start getting really jumpy and letting me know he's had enough and wants to be left alone. This is when he starts doing his run for it trying to get away and getting really jumpy.
