Another good thing to do for teething is get an old towel damp it then put it in th freezer, the coldness will soothe babys gums.

That must be why my mutts like my hubbys damp face flannel. I just thought they were being pervy like trying to eat knickers!

Sorry to lower the tone here, but with my lot if the clothes are not in the washing basket you can be sure that they will have a good chew!

PS I have heard that if you plug the small end of a kong and fill it up with gravy and little bits of veg and pop it in the freezer that helps. Very messy though so one for eating outside or on some newspapers. Helps with boredom too, especially in hot weather xxx K

Make sure she's beginning to exercise. In packs puppies drain energy play fighting, but they soon learn when it gets too painful. Other puppies hurt them and they learn from experience who much pressure to apply. I would make hands a no go area. when she approaches make a sound... grr, No. tsst whatevr works. I tend to prefere Tsst or shhht. You can't put anger behind it at it can become a universal don't do that sound the pup can recognise and know enoughs enough.

Don't encourage her to play tug of war games or chew bummer squeeky toys. These items and games encourage dogs pray drive and you don't want to do this as she's already displaying tendencies.

Stimulate her mind with search games. Show her a treat. let her smel it. Then hide it in a room and let her find it. Encourage her to search helping her at first. She'll probably eat the treat when she finds it. Try to stop her and retreave the treat. Take her outside again and hide and repeat the game. This can teach her not to chew the treat so the game continues. When she eats the traet the game ends. It'll teach her that to bite down stops play.
