My 2 month old puppy is an extremely aggressive chewer and biter!!!!?
I got her a lot of toys but she would apparently chew on my hands and ankles and pants and jacket instead. She's come close to breaking the skin a lot lately. She didn't do this at all the first day we got her, but now any minute she isn't sleeping she is biting me!!! It reallllly hurts and I even pay a lot of attention to her, but she doesn't care. She would rather bite me. ='[ Help please!!!

You must discipline her and let her know that this is unacceptable. Tap her nose with two fingers while saying bad girl firmly, or don't bite. Also, holding the muzzle closed while saying don't bite, then after discipline, give a toy, bone, or other thing she can chew on, praise her for doing the right thing.
Clap your hands loudly and say NO the minute she starts to bite. Sometimes you can see they are going to bite before they even start.Never play with the dog with your hands… always have a toy between you and the dog. There are certain things which excite a dog – high pitched, louder voices, holding arms/hands up in the air, running, fast movements. All things your puppy has to get used to. Your dog needs to learn biting is not acceptable. Puppies play-bite because this is what they did with their siblings, and they are also teething.
do NOT ever let her play with her teeth. EVER. even if you are just playing, as soon as her teeth touch your skin, scold her, tell her "no bite!" and leave. immediately. Ignore her for a few minutes, and do not make eye contact. Get up and do something else. She will eventually figure out that biting is NEVER okay, whether it is play or serious, and will slowly learn to stop. My guess is that you have let her get away with it when she was cute and small and didnt have those little razor puppy teeth, and it was cute when she was trying to play. a lot of people do this, but dogs grow, along with their muscles and the line between right and wrong in biting during play and all other times is blurred. Make up your mind, it is either okay or not okay, and then enforce it. It is either always okay or never okay, not sometimes. Dogs do not understand sometimes.
When ever she bites you. Whimper and then LEAVE THE ROOM. Then wait a minute, Come back in and sit/play. If she bites you again,Leave the room for a little while more, (Make sure shes ALONE) Keep doing this until she stops. This helped A LOT with my puppy!Good luck!
Okay, let's get ONE THING STRAIGHT, your puppy is NOT aggressive! This is typical puppy behavior! Did you not do research on how to raise a puppy? When did you plan on doing that, huh?Go get yourself a gosh durn good book on HOW TO RAISE A PUPPY and READ it!!!!
