I would make sure the puppy doesn't bite your other dog to much, puppy teeth hurt. My prescious Callie would just take what my pup would do to her so I had to occasionally have to tell him to stop. Still do sometimes but he is a year now and doesn't bite like he used to. |
Im just afraid of my dog snapping- because while I currently know her personality. An animal is always unpredictable no matter how much you think you know it, just like children can be unpredictable at times. And those "at times" is what I am worried about.
Should I keep a water spray bottle as a deterrent in case fighting starts?
For our current dog when she was teething we would put this thing called sour apple wherever she would gnaw and we would keep frozen teeth-ers(obviously cleaned before stored) and we would let her gnaw on it under supervision it would calm her down for a while. She would however bite the sofa legs, the table, chairs you name it.
She was smart enough to not go near any cables or wires, although most were hidden there were often times one of us would goof up and leave a charger (cellphone) unattended..
