Yeah some are pretty relentless! Sparty was "Jaws" as a puppy but if you stay with it they do stop. Maria summed it up very well. Scream, disengage, & walk away.

ive tried the yelp, but he gets more excited and starts running around and around, sometimes he even stops to bite my toe. Ive also tried bitting him back, and the neck grab, what the mom does. They all don't work very long ---___--. But i think i should try to walk out. THANK YOU

There are lots of advices and techniques but eventually everything boils down to Bev's advice. Scream, disengage, walk out.

We found that a high pitched dramatic yelp put a stop to it. If he continues after you shriek give him a time out. (think room with out fun things to do for about 5 minutes) Just repeat as needed and he will get it eventually. This is pretty normal corgi pup behavior for many.
