Ive had a 'phew that was pure luck' moments with things they have chewed while I was not in the room (like my laptop cord that was plugged in) and the chewing lasted about 4 months. About 4 months to 8 months they chewed nonstop! My best advice on that one is during this stage, put them in an indoor pen, this will save your walls and baseboards and the bottoms of your cabinets. Mine chewed all those things up, holes in my walls... uuggghhh wish I thought of the indoor PEN, not just gating them into a room to minimize damage. Good luck! | The indoor pen is a good idea for keeping the pups safe & a great help for potty training. When I'm gone I leave Zander and Jazzie in individual pens side by side, I leave a pipi pad, just in case they can't hold it, they end up holding it, even though the pad is there. It is sooo important to give the pups between 4-8 months, things to chew on, safe toys, merricks flossies are excellent, my 2 get 3 or so a week, it helped with them loosing their teeth, so I had to pay less at the vets for extractions. Chewing for them is as good as a walk, its a must, keep them happy, provide some chewing goodies, I believe that's what keeps my two from damaging household items, shoes, etc. |
