What To Do When Your Designer Breed Puppy is Teething
As your Designer Breed puppy starts growing, he or she will begin to show signs of teething. This will occur around 4-5 months of age. This tends to be uncomfortable for the Teacup Breed puppy and they will often want to chew on things to ease this irritation. There are a few ways you can help ease the pain for your new Designer Breed pup. Make chicken soup ice cubes and place them in a bowl or hand them off to your teething puppy. As your Designer Breed puppy tries to chew the cubes, he or she will numb the gums and mouth.
Another option our Teacup Breed breeders recommend is to soak a clean rag and then place it in the freezer; your Teacup Breed puppy can use this to chew on to help ease the pain. This period of time can be quite painful for your Designer Breed puppy, and sometimes bleeding may occur. It is important to discourage your Teacup Breed puppy from chewing on objects in the home. At times the pup will even try to chew on your arms and legs. The teething process causes a great deal of discomfort for your Designer Breed puppy, using the frozen compress or the ice cubes can help ease the pain.
