Puppy Teething Tips 

Dealing with a teething puppy may be difficult at times. Teething is confusing to puppies because they do not understand why their teeth hurt. This article will go into further detail about teething and some tips on how you can help your four-legged friend through the process.

You must understand the signs of teething, including drooling or blood spots on their toys. We know it is difficult to train a puppy in the teething stage, but the good news is that you can reinforce good chewing habits compared to bad ones. Remember that dogs react better to positive reinforcement training. Do not stop your dog from chewing! Chewing soothes their gums.

Puppies are learning a lot about life and how to bite as they go through the teething phase. As puppies are teething, they need to do so in a productive way rather than destroying furniture and other valuables. Thankfully, there are plenty of toys out there that are tough for chewing. These toys also help alleviate pain for your four-legged friend. Look for a tough yet soothing toy for a dog’s sensitive mouth.

It is also easy to make your toy for your teething puppy! Roll up a towel like a rope, get it wet, and freeze it. The cold and chewy material of the frozen towel will soothe your dog’s pain while providing mental stimulation. Be aware that this method could make your puppy think towels are chew toys!

We hope that you understand more about the teething phase. As always, there are things that you can do to help. Once puppies move past the teething stage, they should know the good from the bad when they chew. Consult your veterinarian for other tips on how to help your four-legged friend!
