I don't know how to train this dog

[darkoshi]

This video showcases the main problem I have with Zorro. She "jumps with her teeth" - she jumps up and bites my clothing. That is why I mostly wear this ratty old jacket when I go in the yard, to keep her from ruining my good clothes (I don't know what I'll do when the weather gets too hot for wearing a jacket). She also play-bites my ankles and pulls on my pants legs. As can be seen in the video, I've tried ignoring her when she does that (sometimes that makes her stop, but today it didn't), I've tried shouting "OUCH!", I've tried sternly telling her to stop, I've tried hitting her when she jumps... that makes her growl angrily and get more aggressive. I've tried praising her when she doesn't do it. Nothing seems to help. I don't know what to do.

I've seen it a few times. I don't get it on TV as I don't have cable. I was considering getting it from Netflix, but after reading some other peoples comments about the show, I am uncertain. There appears to be much controversy over the techniques used on it (I have to take the time to read that 2nd link). For now, I've got several other dog training videos in my queue.
