Why Do Puppies Chew On Everything?
“Dog is a man's best friend”(King Fredrick of Prussia). Although this quote may be true, sometimes dogs can be a handful. One reason for this is that they love to chew on everything. Some people wonder why they chew on everything. There are various reasons why puppies chew on everything.
One reason why puppies may chew everything is because of separation anxiety. According to Kara Murphy, dogs may become destructive whenever they have separation anxiety. They may also hurt themselves by not eating or drinking due to their anxiety (Kara Murphy). If a puppy is anxious he may chew on objects to demonstrate their anxiety. Of course, there may be another reson as to why they feel the need to bite on a thing.
Another reason why dogs, especially puppies, may destroy a new pair of shoes is that they are teething. Meanwhile teething dogs may feel discomfort but “The act of chewing stimulates these chemicals which helps relieve the discomfort of teething”(Culp). So the act of chewing can help them feel better when their teeth are coming in. There is another culprit that may be the cause of your puppy’s habit.
The final reasoning to why they chew is because they are bored. Culp reasons “It keeps them physically and mentally occupied. Dogs can't read a book, watch tv or surf the net”. This explains that dogs, like humans, need something to keep them occupied in their free time.
In summation, there are various motivations as to why dogs enjoy devouring your furniture. These motivations include: separation anxiety, teething, and boredom. Humans should attempt to understand dogs and their actions
