My puppy is chewing on everything and won't stop! How can I manage this?

[]

Answer

Puppy chewing is a natural behavior, especially during teething and exploration. However, it's essential to manage it to protect your home and puppy. Ensure your puppy has a variety of appropriate chew toys – different textures and hardness. Redirect destructive chewing by consistently offering a toy and praising them when they chew on it. Bitter sprays can deter chewing on furniture. Provide plenty of mental and physical stimulation through walks, play, and training to reduce boredom, which can lead to destructive behaviors. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance on effective training techniques.
