00:00One thing that troubles us the most about puppies and dogs is their habit of biting and chewing.
00:06So today I am going to tell you how we can eradicate this habit of dogs.
00:12But for that, we first have to understand why puppies do this.
00:17Biting is a natural habit of puppies because they experience the things around them with their mouth.
00:22If you look at it, the habits of a puppy are not different from that of a human baby,
00:26who eats anything to experience it.
00:29Puppies pick up things with their mouth, feel and taste them,
00:33understand the smell of it with their nose and make a relationship with it in their mind.
00:38So this experience is a very important part of their childhood.
00:42Now in this period of experiencing everything, they chew furniture,
00:46cut clothes, chew shoes, etc. etc.
00:49So to stop this, I will tell you some tricks
00:52which will neither spoil their experience nor your furniture.
00:56You can also try these tricks with your big dogs.
00:59But it will take a little more time for them to learn.
01:02So you have to be patient.
01:04Number 1. Set boundaries with your dog.
01:08Dogs know how to set their boundaries very well.
01:11Whenever they are playing with another dog or puppy
01:14and the other puppy bites them a little hard, they scream.
01:17To show that they didn't like it.
01:20And the other puppy also stops for a while.
01:24Whenever you are playing with your puppy and your puppy tries to bite you,
01:28you scream loudly.
01:30If possible, act as if you are in pain.
01:33Don't start playing immediately after screaming.
01:36Give your puppy a chance to understand
01:39that you didn't like the way he bit you.
01:42Number 2. Give them things to chew.
01:45If you play with your puppy with your hands,
01:48then stop doing this first.
01:51Whenever you do this, they associate your hands with playing.
01:56If your puppy tries to bite your hand or put it in your mouth,
02:00then you remove your hand from its mouth and put a toy in its mouth.
02:05You may have to repeat this many times.
02:07But in the end, your puppy will understand that you don't have a toy in your hand.
02:12You can make a toy for them at home with old clothes or socks.
02:16Or you can get a chew toy from the store.
02:19With this toy, your puppy will be able to chew without any pain and your hands will be safe.
02:23Number 3. Playtime.
02:26Puppies have a lot of energy.
02:28And when they can't use this energy, they start being naughty.
02:32Like chewing furniture, eating clothes, eating slippers, etc.
02:37They do this because of boredom.
02:40In this case, it is very important to exhaust their energy.
02:44For this, you give your puppy a lot of outdoor playtime.
02:48Take your puppy to a safe place where it can run a lot.
02:52Play fetch or any other game with your puppy,
02:55in which its energy is used and it gets tired.
02:58Number 4. Use your mom's recipe.
03:00Do you remember when we used to eat something in our childhood that was not edible?
03:05Mom used to sprinkle some red chilli powder on it.
03:08So that we don't put it in our mouth again.
03:10Don't worry, we are not feeding any puppy red chilli powder here.
03:14If your puppy is chewing something again and again,
03:17then you can mix some water and vinegar in the cotton and make it taste.
03:21Dogs don't like the sour taste of vinegar.
03:26Now fill a spray bottle with half vinegar and half water.
03:30Spray it on everything that you want to save from your puppy.
03:34Spray this vinegar and water spray for 2 to 4 weeks daily.
03:40This will train your puppy's mind that the result of chewing this thing is very sour.
03:45Whenever you are interacting with your dog,
03:48they are learning something from you.
03:50So it is very important that they learn something right from you in every interaction.
03:55If you have any questions related to your pet,
03:58then ask us in the comments.
04:00And do share this video.
