Why is my puppy nippy and hyper in the evenings? What to do?

Question

At times our 14 week APBT puppy gets nippy and hyper in the evenings. What should we do to change this? She’s in. Puppy training class and goes to puppy play time. We also make a loud noise when she nips and distract her with a toy. Pet's info: Dog | American Pit Bull Terrier | Female | unspayed | 18 lbs

If you are noticing it in the evenings, it's possible she is tired and is acting out (kind of like a toddler). You may try putting her in her kennel for a nap or to bed for the evening if it's late enough. Here a a couple links about puppy biting (which is normal): https://www.petcoach.co/article/puppy-biting-nipping-of-hands/ https://www.petcoach.co/article/puppy-biting-when-does-it-stop/ I hope this helps!
