Frozen tools
Frozen carrots, frozen Kongs with yogurt, frozen wet washcloths. Cold numbs gums and reduces inflammation.
Appropriate chews
Bully sticks (supervised), Yak chews, rubber Kongs. Avoid: rawhide, antlers, hard nylon (tooth fractures).
Chewing isn't optional
Take chewing away and the puppy will find something — your couch leg. Plan for 1+ hour of chewing daily.
