Thanks MyFairLacy! I bought him some new orka chew toys on my way home from work, but he doesn't seem interested in them right now I'm also trying to keep a bully stick handy for him and other things he likes to chew on.

He does seem pretty uncomfy though; he keeps batting at his mouth with his paws and chomping his jaws. He does this right before a tooth falls out- almost like he is pulling it out himself. I looked in his mouth the last time he did it, and saw that the loose tooth was bleeding! Is this normal behavior? Should I call the vet and have his gums checked if they are bleeding? He is so uncomfy, I can tell- he keeps rubbing at his face If I freeze his chewies, will it make it feel better? When a baby is teething in my nursury school class, I freeze a damp rag and let them chew on it- is this a good idea for puppies too????

LOL I'm such a first time mommy; sorry for the hysteria, but I hate to see my baby so unhappy
