How do I stop my puppy biting?

My 12-week-old Labrador bites hands during play and it’s getting sharp. What actually works?

    Redirect to a toy the instant teeth touch skin, and calmly end play for 20–30 seconds if it continues — puppies quickly learn that bites end the fun. Avoid rough hand games, and make sure they’re getting enough rest; over-tired puppies bite more.
