Instructions
Give your dog lots of chew toys. Chew toys can help ease teething pain and provide puppies with something other than furniture and shoes to chew on. Make sure the toys are safe for puppies and do not resemble household items.
Add natural peanut butter to the chew toys if your puppy does not prefer them. Most dogs love peanut butter.
Wet a washcloth and place it in the freezer. Once it's frozen, give the washcloth to your puppy to chew on. It will ease the teething pain. However, you need to supervise your puppy while chewing on the washcloth to make sure no pieces are swallowed.
Massage your puppy's gums with a fingertip toothbrush that is made for teething puppies. This will sooth the pain and encourage the teeth to grow in.
