Thank you all for your advice and input. My family member is going to get a golden doodle puppy in October. I am worried but I want to know what I can do to prepare
I remember our puppy, she took about only two naps with us in total because she had so much energy, and trying to train her not to bite was nearly in possible. I miss her so muchThank you, @FeatheredM ! Exactly what I thought of.
Pepebirdie, if you've had a puppy before, you know what you're in for. If not, check out my thread. There is hope. That 'shark' is now growing into a lovely pup!
Actually there are a lot of arguments about what is safe for parrots, too And just like parrots, there is no "one toy fits all" for dogs. A lot of it is figuring out your own dog's chewing style, etc. My 75lb dog, for instance, still has stuffies from a year ago that are pristine, but then my mom's dog, a little 12 lb thing, will destroy them inside 5 minutes.Thanks everybody
So I have been researching more to prepare our family for the work of a puppy. I am asking questions on dog forums but they aren't as active as this forum is. My question is, what kinds of toys are safe for puppies? I can't find a single toy that everyone on the internet can agree is safe for an unsupervised puppy. Plush toys? Will be destroyed and eaten. Hard rubber? Will break puppy teeth. Soft rubber/nylabone? Will be ingested by dog and require vet attention. Rawhide? Bad. Bone toys are too hard and rope is also unsafe apparently. It's not as clear as what's safe vs not safe toys for birds.
I don't... so he gets them rarely. I keep watch . Once he parades around squeaking the plastic thing I take it and the toy and trash themWhere do you get cow hooves & how do you prevent de-squeaking?!
