some1 was saying to ring a wet tea towel out so it isnt dripping wet and put it in the freezer then give wen frozen,helps releive the gums. putting carrots in the freezer then giving to the puppy is also ment to be good! shame you cant give them bonjella as its great for my 7mth old baby! can you give a puppy bonjella? probably a silly question but just courious now! :)

Please correct me if I have got this wrong but I thought your new puppy was only just over 9 weeks old.

If I am right there is no way is he teething, puppies don't start to change their teeth until they are approx 16-18 weeks old.

What you are getting is just normal puppy chewing. Trying out all sorts of new textures and tastes.

Can't see why not cally, the pup will get plenty of chewing practice, just supervise to make sure he's not biting great chunks off to choke on.  But he should be supervised anyway at this age as he could try to eat anything :)

I give my puppy Nylabones. The chicken flavour one seems to be irrisistable!! :)
