my pyr pup won't stop mouthing

Help!!! How do I get my pup (9 months old) to stop mouthing. He is such a great dog, but I can't get him to stop putting his mouth on us. He has been to obedience training and does great with everything except mouthing. I have tried everything from keeping him on a lease and training collar to putting apple bitters on everyones hands, pants, etc. If I can only teach him not to do this, he will be a great pet!!! Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

did you try a head harness or a head halter (there the same thing just people refer to them differently)?? and is he play biting or really biting hard??

Have you tried "freezing him out" when he begins to mouthe at you?
