    Um, puppies don't hit. Cats will give a swipe, but you don't have a cat.

    Then you do what you would do with a child. Divert him with a toy and doing something else. It's basic psychology.

    That's what puppies do and you have to teach him not to do this.

    He wants your attention. He wants you to pet him.

    You tell him NO in a stern voice and put his paw on the floor.
