You might chance upon your dog chewing most of the time. Don’t be alarmed because chewing is a natural habit of dogs. But if you feel that your dog consistently chews, he might start to chew other important stuff in your house.
If you have a puppy, he mostly chews
because his teeth are still growing. He is also curious about the things he
sees, and he wants to bite these to know more about them.
If you have an adult dog, he might chew because he is bored or anxious. He could also have more energy and he finds that chewing is one way to burn it out. Encourage your dog to chew on chew toys instead. Hide your important items and put plenty of chew toys around the house. Meanwhile, don’t leave your dog walking around the house unattended.
If you see your dog chewing on other items, take away your dog’s attention by creating a sharp noise. To further keep the dog’s mind off your other items; make sure that you give your dog plenty of opportunity for exercise.
If you have any questions or concerns about your pet’s behavior, don’t hesitate to contact your animal hospital St. Augustine, FL.
