Every puppy has to go through the teething process, but unfortunately most owners are relatively uninformed about the whole process. It can be uncomfortable for your dog and trying for you, which is why puppy teething relief can provide sanity for the both of you. Puppies actually teeth twice in their lives. The first period is at around 3 weeks of age. They get their baby teeth then. Generally, this process doesn't cause as much discomfort or chewing behavior as the adult teething period later on. Sometimes owners may not even notice that their puppy is getting his baby teeth. Adult teeth begin to appear in your puppy around the time they are 6 months old. First the canines will appear, then incisors, then finally the pre-molars. It is imperative that you provide proper puppy teething relief to your puppy as it will not only relieve his discomfort, but will also assure he will not use your shoes and furniture as an alternate teething device. When puppies start their chewing stage it means that they are starting to teethe. During this stage they will chew anything they can get their teeth into. If you ask any owner why their puppy does this, they will usually say that it is just something puppies do. While this is true, they are really chewing because by putting pressure on their teeth and gums they are actually relieving pain from teething. Chewing is something that all puppies do naturally and there are some things that can be done to help your puppy and your furniture. There is some gel medicine that you can get from your vet that might help the puppy's pain. When the puppy feels less pain they will chew less. Get new chew toys and only allow the puppy to play with those. If the puppy is chewing on a chair leg for instance, take a chew toy and place it in front of the puppy, more likely than not the puppy with take the chew toy and leave your chair leg alone. Just like with children, puppies teethe. They also need something to help relieve the pain. Babies are often given frozen teething rings and the same can be done for puppies. A chew toy can easily be frozen and then given to the puppy either over night, during the day or both. The best option would be to have several chew toys cycling through being frozen and being used. While the teething period is short, it is very uncomfortable for your puppy. You can help him through this time with puppy teething relief products. If you're lucky enough to still have an intact pair of shoes, be thankful. You'll need them to train your dog to walk on a leash!
