Why do puppies tend to chew on many objects?

Many Pet Parents who have had the pleasure to bring home a puppy know that during a specific growth period, our four-legged friends go through a phase in which they tend to chew every possible object found at home. Discover more about when this particular phase begins and some of the reasons behind this interesting behavior in this article created by your favorite blue pet problem solver, the Farmina Genius.  
When does the dog's chewing start?
The crucial phase of this chewing behavior trend occurs between the fourth and sixth months of age when the puppy begins developing its final teeth. As a consequence, the little one feels an irresistible desire to nibble and gnaw on anything. This specific nibbling behavior is completely natural! The puppy is constantly attempting to relieve the discomfort in the gums as its teeth are about to fully come out.How to stop a puppy from chewing everything
At home, Pet Parents must be extremely careful not to leave certain items unattended and within the puppy’s easy reach. Maximum attention must be directed to hiding electrical cables and to anything that contains dangerous or poisonous substances such as medicines, detergents or other harmful liquids. Other everyday items that your furry friend would love to nibble on are slippers, shoes, gloves and hats so if you have any valuable items, make sure they are stored in a safe place. As an alternative to these items, Pet Parents should promote healthy habits. Always provide treats and chewing toys which can also serve as a useful form of exercise and teaching.A range of personalized solutions for your puppy
