what toys are good for a puppy with teeth coming in?

any idea?
Posted: 10:57:28 PM 7/25/2006
I haven't tried it yet, but maybe someone else has and can help us both out.

There is a thing I have seen called the "chill bone"
You soak it in water and then freeze it. Once frozen you give it to the do to chew on, it looks like a cloth type of material. I have heard of giving them ice cubes for that but my pup doesn't seem to interested. I even have a baby ice cube tray so she could get them into her mouth, but not to small that she would choke.

Please help us both if you can

There is a starter kit for puppies that has three types of bones there is the rubber bone and then they have one that is semi rubber and the last thing is a rawhide bone when the puppies teeth are almost finished coming in.

There is also a tightly woven cotton pull rope that also works very well when a puppies teeth are coming in.

Don Juan,
Is the one you linked the one you were talking about (better than chill bone) ?

Thanks a bunch, need something for bailey

She just chews on the rope, never eating, just chewing

You can order the chill bone from Foster & Smith, but I think Petsmart also has them. Works just like a teething ring for babies. The cold would probably feel good to a puppies little gums.

Thanks a bunch everyone, looks like there is going to be another petsmart run for me. lol

If you know anyone that hunts deer, get them to give you some of their old deer antlers.
My puppies love them to cut teeth on. I saw the tips off and the ends off that connected to the deers head and give them over.
Dogs love to chew them and they do not shard off.

A cold carrot from the fridge and a cold wet facecloth work great and are very inexpensive :)
Posted: 8:32:00 AM 7/26/2006
Bailey likes to shred those carrots, just thought the chill thing or what Don Juan might be fun as well.

Thanks riley, will try the cloth
Posted: 8:51:21 AM 7/26/2006
Call me old fashoned, or cheap too I guess, but like lifeofriley, I also used the frozen washcloths. I had 4-5 that were the dogs, I would wet them and freeze them, and when one thawed there were always more in the bucket. I would also tie knots so they would last longer. For outside I would frreeze one in a little water in a dish so there was an ice cube stuck one the cloth as well. Oh and I would also wet and freeze her knot-a-rope for her too.

Great ideas, thanks Ruffian and Riley,

new pup is already costing me bundles

mand many trips to petstore already, think I will omit it for today. see how she takes to the washcloths, and I have plenty to spare. perfect

When my puppy was teething, she loved chewing on her nyla bone that I would put in the freezer.

cols carrots mmm good idea i will try it today.
thanks...
Posted: 10:45:11 AM 7/26/2006
I got my pup the baby carrots that are already round and in bite size, they are already skinned and ready to go.

Us new parents need to cut as many corners as we can. no time to cut a carrot! hehe

I have always used nylabone products as they don't seem to cause a choking or gut plugging hazzard. Be careful of anything your puppy could swallow. Removal can be expensive.
