Puppy Tips

What to do With Chewing

We are back with another great blog post from Baxter and Bella! Baxter and Bella is a wonderful resource for any dog owner. Today, we want to share their post with you about chewing. If your dog is a power chewer, then this blog is perfect for you!  

In this blog, Baxter and Bella highlight setting chew-safe toys in your dogs play area, replacing non-chewable items with chew toys as positive correction and reinforcement, the importance of quality time with you dog to prevent boredom chewing, and more. 

Dogs also chew out of boredom, so make sure to spend plenty of quality time with your dog each day. Give them exercise and a job to do such as basic training. A few minutes every hour is a good goal, working on new behaviors you want your dog to learn. We want your dog to have mental exercise through training, but we also want your dog to learn to self-entertain too. Being in a pen with their toys helps with this part. 

Baxter and Bella remind dog owners that chewing is natural and it is our job as the owner to be aware of what they might have access to chewing!

About CVL

What is a multi-generational Australian Labradoodle?

Multi-generational Australian Labradoodles are a cross between many different parent breeds. The breed originated in Australia in the 1980s with the intent of creating an allergy-friendly service dog for the blind. Australian Labradoodles are a combination of a Poodle, Labrador Retriever, English Cocker Spaniel, American Cocker Spaniel, and Irish Water dogs. These breeds were hand-selected for specific breed qualities to create the ideal service dog for those with allergies. Since then, the breed has continued on and spread across the world. Australian Labradoodles are now considered their own breed with its own breed clubs (ALAA and WALA).
