It is common for puppies to chew on just about anything they can get their mouths into. This will include your furniture, clothing and yes, you. Puppies are just exploring their world and environment, and they enjoy tasting everything!
Naturally this can become a problem if there are certain things you just don't want puppy to put into his mouth.
You should remove harmful objects from the dogs reach to start with.
This includes electrics, wires, cords, chemicals, cleaning bottles and other dangerous substances.
Tiny objects like marbles should also never be left lying around where the dog has access to.
To curb undesirable chewing on your items, provide your pup with plenty of chewable toys.
The hard and soft rubber toys are best and are found at pet shops and department stores.
If your dog has something in its mouth at all times then it is much less likely to use you or your furniture as a chewing target!
Putting your dog outside will allow it to explore natural items like grass which it can chew one.
A word of warning though; remove your plants if you don't want them ruined! Just about any breed of puppy will chew on plants and I have had many an ancient plant completely ruined in minutes.
If chewing eventually turns to biting then you will need to consider dog training.
Once your pup grows larger this can become dangerous particularly if you have children.
A trained dog trainer can curb this chewing and biting behavior.
Toys and close watch are the best ways to ensure your dog's chewing behavior does not get out of control.
With time and patience, any dog can be trained, so make sure you start early.
