Teething question: URGENT?

I just got a puppy exactly one week ago and my mom was wondering when teething ends? The pup just turned 3 months old yesterday, and we have at least 7 chew toys for her! She bites EVERYTHING in sight, unless she is resting. But we need to know when a puppy stops teething. Thanks!

Teething question: URGENT?
Your dog isn't necessarily displaying teething behavior. Puppies at all stages bite, you need training to fix it. You can't always just wait it out.
Reply:The teething hasn't begun yet. She will start to lose her baby teeth soon.

"They chew


until there 2"
Reply:It can last from age 5 months to over one year (or longer). Remember to keep it away from dangerous things like electrical cords or appliances that are hooked up. Good luck!
Reply:try getting a wash cloth and drenching it in water (you could add a bit of chicken stock too), then wring it out and put it in the freezer all rolled up. having something cold for the teeth really helps.





teething can last longer for some dogs than others, the best way to tell is to check your dogs mouth and see which teeth still need to come in. on average i would say it lasts a couple months.





also even though your puppy needs to chew, don't be lenient and allow him to chew things he shouldn't. and if he bites you, do the "yelp and shun" to get him to stop.





ADD: oh and the others are right, teething usually doesn't start until 4 - 5 months, and usually the canines at 6 months, and by 8 months they pretty much have all their adult teeth.
Reply:You can soak and freeze nylaropes for her, and conversely, spray stuff you don't want her to chew (like woodwork) with Bitter Apple.





Get a small spray bottle and some icky yellow Listerine to spray on your hands, so you don't have to endure the Bitter Apple - it really does taste terrible!





I hope you're crating this puppy - that is the only surefire way to keep them safe when you're not directly surpervising them
Reply:It all depends on the breed and the size really although most dogs will stop teething around 5 months! She's experiencing exactly the same things as a human baby, the high temperature, the hot cheeks, the very sore gums, maybe the runs, being misreable and snappy, sad eh? Made even sadder because she can't tell you! You can rub some baby formula Bonjela ( a numbing gel for teething human babies ) on her gums plus give her ice cubes to suck - mine loved them when they were going through the agonys of teething, they still love them now in fact when the weathers very hot! Teething doesn't last forever, she's almost over it and you'll be finding her little gnashers all over the place ha ha. She can't help biting things, it does help with the pain and discomfort but try the ice cubes - they were a god send to me and mine. Good luck.
