1. You should not worry so much if you are hurt by your puppy! It is all part of his growing-up process and just matter of time and the right encouragement and training will cease as he matures. If it is a bit more serious if he is doing this in anger then you need to be that much stronger and bearer!
2. Don't allow someone playing roughly with your puppy that is inclined to bite. Rough play will only give him go ahead with this behavior and establish it strongly in dog's mind.
3. If it seems this behavior is getting much strong or persistent, keep a bottle handy water spray. Accompany your firm "NO!" with a squirt of water in puppy's face.

5. Have in mind that consistency is the key. Every time your dog bites, say "NO! NO!!" in a strong, harsh voice. Then just walk away and ignore him or her. It's a bit of Pavlovian response; if your puppy equates biting with the end of play time, he won't bite.
