The teething process is very uncomfortable for a puppy. Your job as a responsible owner is to provide something they can chew on to soothe sore gums and help make this process a little more comfortable. Rubber teething toys that you can put in the freezer, edible puppy teething rings, and flavored puppy chew toys can all be good options. You can ask your veterinarian for advice on choosing safe chew toys for your puppy. Whatever you choose, always supervise chewing and playtime. Check your dog’s toys periodically to ensure they aren’t falling apart. Your puppy shouldn’t be able to chew chunks off or pull pieces of fiber or stuffing from them. Keep toys where you can easily reach them so you can quickly offer an acceptable alternative when the puppy feels a need to chew. If they start nibbling at your fingers or toes while you’re playing, offer them a toy instead.
