Whatever breed of puppy appears in your house, in any case, you will encounter such a problem as gnawed things. Moreover, half of the house can suffer from his sharp teeth - wallpaper on the walls, furniture, cords, shoes - everything that he can reach and "try on the tooth". Preventing damage is difficult, but possible.
Instructions
Step 1
Sharpening growing teeth is a physiological need for a dog. Buy him toys specially designed for this purpose. They should attract his interest, so keep some of the toys hidden and put them out from time to time for his entertainment, removing the ones he has been playing with lately. In this way, the puppy will retain interest in his toys.
Step 2
If possible, do not leave the little mischievous person alone, under the watchful eye of someone from the household, he will not be able to inflict tangible damage. If you leave him alone, remove anything that might attract his attention and become dangerous - especially electrical wires. Some owners even practice to lock the puppy in a special cage, where he can drink and sleep, but from which he cannot get out and chew on expensive furniture.
Step 3
You can try to develop a persistent negative reflex in your puppy by smearing the wire or furniture legs with some harmless "nasty" such as lapis or hot pepper. Build traps like this and try to develop a strong prejudice against things that seem potentially attractive to him.
Step 4
When leaving home, make sure that the puppy is full, leave him a special bone, which is sold in special stores. It will take him several hours to gnaw it, and then you will just return home.
Step 5
Use punishment if, despite your best efforts, the puppy stubbornly prefers shoes and wallpaper to bones and toys. Give him a spank, like the bitches teaching their babies, or the leaders of the dog packs. To do this, it is enough to take it by the withers and shake it slightly so that there is no pain, but the warning was understood. But remember that you need to punish as soon as you see a puppy gnawing things. If you punish him after a while, then he may simply not understand why he received a beating from his beloved master.
Step 6
And remember, if you forbade the puppy to chew on something, then you do not need to allow it later, even if you are in a great mood and you realized that you can donate your furniture or wallpaper so that your friend will feel just as good. Always be persistent with the dog and patiently push your way. This is the guarantee of her correct upbringing.
