    Frozen carrots for teething! Nylabones work too just make sure they don't ingest large pieces.

    • @flykirwan

    My golden loved frozen blueberries when she was teething still cold but a more healthier option for treats. And carrots honestly I did the kong a lot! Ice cubes were also a big hit. And her favorite toys are still plushy toys especially ones that are like wild life like deer and ducks. Best place we got them are from like tractor supply and cabelas great quality!!

    I have to admit I rarely comment on videos, I love your videos they bring me back down to earth and ground me if my mind starts wondering and stressing. And now seeing Cash! He is so precious! I keep checking if you uploaded a new video every other day 🤗😅 I would love to know what videos did I you watch before getting a puppy? To get ready with training and everything. Hope you are doing well with weather and everything in Texas ♥️

  • @jasminewaters5878
    @jasminewaters5878 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    For chewing mix 2 parts white vinegar and 1 part water in a spray bottle. Spray it on anything Cash likes to chew. My husband and I did this when our dog was a puppy and it stopped him from chewing on things within a week!

    For healthy treats we alternate between blueberries, apples, and shredded carrots (again, everything in moderation). As for toys, my dog LOVES bark box and literally knows when it’s his package and tries to help open it.

  • @byersjul
    @byersjul 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    My puppy loves frozen carrots. Also I used washcloths twisted, dipped in chicken broth and then frozen. She also loved the wild one bolt more than the kong. If you dont have the bitter apple spray, highly recommend so you can put it on things you dont want to chew.

  • @AutumnRose1397
    @AutumnRose1397 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    My aunt and uncle went through the same thing with their power going off and on multiple times. My house luckily only lost power for 3 hours and my grandparents never lost power which I'm so thankful for. I had some friends who lost power for 50 + hours and I can't even imagine how cold that must have been. I love the snow but hopefully next time Texas gets it, power outages won't be a major problem.

    • @michellereedg

    @lauracavanagh3882 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Bully sticks and Himalayan yak milk chews were a lifesaver for our teething puppy!! I would recommend getting the odor free bully sticks because they can be kind of stinky but they are safe chews and last a long time. I would just be sure to not leave them completely alone with them and not get ones too small.

    Our puppies loved anything rubber to chew on and the bamboo bones for puppies! Chewy has lots of great rubber chew toys. Be careful if he starts to try to eat the rope because it can get stuck in their tummy.

    Cute cash, I was amazed about how good my mini Aussie puppy was in the beginning too. No accidents in the crate at all (which isn’t always common) but he didn’t like the crate, even though I showed him it was a good place (so he woke up once each night) but now he sleeps in our bed so he sleeps through the night now but won’t sleep in 😂 but yes the biting only gets worst 😭 love my puppy with all my heart

  • @silvanaaag

    @rachelbaker2556 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    My dogs love the luma bones! Good for chewing you just have to make sure they don’t chew any pieces off of it. Another thing my trainer told me to do was roll a wash cloth up and then wet it and freeze it. It feels good on their teeth when they are teething!

  • @kristen841
    @kristen841 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    It's helpful to use hand signals along with key words to teach a puppy tricks! So for instance if you say "sit" make a fist with your hand or palm up and raise your hand, and for "come" use the motion. This helps reinforce the idea!

    • @kristen841
      @kristen841 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey Michelle! If you soak the ropes with water and freeze them, my dog loved them as a puppy. We also love the company Nylabone. My dog still chews on their bones to this day after ten years.

  • @Libbbbssss
    @Libbbbssss 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    You should Nylabones for chewing. I have a ten month golden doodle who LOVES to chew, and the nylabones, benebones and like rubber chew toys are the best!!

  • @calliejean1853
    @calliejean1853 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Chilly Bone (it’s a cloth bone you get wet and then freeze), Nyla puppy bones, Elk half cut antlers, and any GoDog brand stuffy (they are reinforced and don’t have harmful stuffing in them). Kongs are definitely great though! I put blueberries, peanut butter, coconut oil, and a carrot inside my pups kongs and then freeze! :)

  • @laurengould309
    @laurengould309 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I’m in Texas too about 20 min from Dallas...we lost power for 3 days ...we had to go stay with my father in law cause it was about 40 degrees in our apartment...I also had horrible luck and got all four of my wisdom teeth out right before the snow and ice...I had all sorts of complications and couldn’t get my pain meds for days cause the pharmacies had no power...we lost water for a day and then had the boil water notice for a few days...luckily our pipes didn’t bust but the poor maintenance man at our apartments has been so busy..ceilings are caved in and apartments are flooded from busted pipes...I went back to work in the ER and we had pipes bust all over the ER and couldn’t use the water for our patients either...I’m so glad all that’s over and honestly am just so thankful we were able to find food,stay warm and safe...we had tons of patients come in for carbon monoxide poisoning trying to stay warm. Glad y’all were able to stay warm and safe❤️

  • @jesskolmel8503
    @jesskolmel8503 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey Michelle! My pup loved antlers as a puppy & still now! They sell them at many pet stores, but my father has found them on hikes randomly too! It has a slight flavour but similar texture to wood, without flaking off where he may choke. Def check them out!
