YES! Don't give up, they grow out of it. Just get rope toys, bones, or things for him/her to chew on. I heard that the best way to teach a puppy not to bite you or other people is to "yelp" very loudly when they bite you, it is the easiest way to let them know it hurts. Sometimes certain dogs will chew again at about a year old, but only for about a week.

this is commonly called "teething" . The same thing you did when you were first getting your teeth. If you were unaware of this it may have been best that you read up on puppy and dog behavior before getting one. Find some chew toys and replace them with what ever it is currently biting on that it shouldn't be.

Yep - it's puppy biting. Don't encourage biting during play (walk away and ignore him when he does it), get him lots of chewy toys and make him some old moistened washcloths and put them in the freezer to help with teething - it feels good on his sore puppy teeth. Just supervise him when he has them so he doesn't eat little pieces. He'll outgrow it.

Yes! Your puppy is teething. Give him lots of chew toys and if he goes after things like the knobs on dressers, spray a bit of perfume on them, he won't try it again.
Give him ice cubes to chew on and he will love you!!
Also, if you are very luck and care about this sort of thing, you may be able to keep one of the baby teeth that come out. Usually there is a telltale sign of blood on the lips but you have to be fast because dogs eat their baby teeth. My hubby was fast, he managed to keep a few from our dogs.

Yes it is normal. It means it getting its teeth in. Try to get the puppy a chew toy so it wouldn't think its ok to chew on things you don't want it to chew on when its older...
it's like how human babies are when they are getting their teeth in. they need something to chew on but with us we don't chew on everything a dog would and stuff

yes it is possible. But, as a professional dog trainer, i suggest that you give the dog a few toys to chew on. make a daily routine for your dog. If your dog does not stop biting everything, this shows a sign of your dog not having enough fun. so, my advise to you is to show your dog that you care by spoiling he/she. good luck........
sincerely,

absolutely
A. puppies do that and
B. they are still teething at that point
and like i said puppies just do that the best thing to do is check your grocery store, they might have a special frozen treat for puppies, it's good for a treat and for teething. or, be ready to be doing a lot of cleaning up after your puppy

oh yea, they'll chew anything that their teeth can bare. I'd recommend a soft chew toy or small ball that she cant swallow or choke on, but can gnaw on to comfort her teeth. I wouldnt go with a tennis ball, maybe a soft rubber ball or stick.
