How exciting for you. The breeder gave me bitter apple spray and I think it's most effective if you use it while they are young. As soon as I sprayed it on something, he would try to chew, but then stop. I wish I had sprayed it on the blinds right away though.
Dry food is so much better for your puppy's teeth than wet. They usually prefer wet and many will turn their noses up at dry if given a choice. You can always wet down dry food if necessary. It's best to use food that the breeder has used and gradually mix your brand with it if you wish to change.
Some Nylabones are 100% digestible and some aren't. The Nutri Dent bone is made by Nylabones and is said to be 100% natural, but I don't know if that means 100% digestible. At close to 20 weeks, Joey just hides any bones we give him, but at first he loved the Nutri Dent. Good Luck on your new baby!
