Our 5 month old Doberman has started her teething stage recently. She's lost a few teeth so far and we've also noticed she's having trouble eating solid food along with light blood stains on her toys and carpet. If your puppy is teething and having a hard time, here are a few things we're doing to help our pup.
- If your puppy is on solid food and is hesitant about eating it, mix some hot water with their food to soften it a bit. Let it cool before serving. Isis started eating right away once we did this. As a matter of fact, I think she prefers it, teething or not.
- Give them ice cubes to snack on. Although most people already do this with their dogs regularly.
- Treat them with puppy ice cream!
- Use teething toys and Nylabones. Pop them in the freezer if you need to.
- Avoid rough tugging while playing.
- Also, to save your carpet from blood stains, this stuff is amazing! I'm not sure how it will do with heavy blood stains but it got out light stains no problem. You can find it at Home Depot.
