Whenever you are bitten by your beloved puppy, do you think it is just simply trying to play with you? Don't be so simple! A puppy bites people is not a joke, it often hides deeper meanings.
As a competent dog parent, do you really know your furry? Let's see what it means to uncover the mystery behind the puppy's nibble!
Although the dog is small, it has a delicate emotion and a sharp instinct. When you do something that makes it uncomfortable or even threatened, the act of nibbling is nothing more than a silent distress signal from it.
may sound a bit exaggerated, but you must know that in their world, biting is the most instinctive method of self-protection. So don't understand it wrong. Maybe you can kiss, hug, rub it, and rub it. But it's not surprising that the little guy bites it lightly.
For dogs, nibbling has another mysterious function - checking the host. You think your ordinary day is filled with devastation and shocking world for the puppy! What's going on?
It turns out that nibbling can help the puppy exchange and identify pheromones, and you can find out what shameful things you have done during the day. If you find that you have the smell of "wild flowers" on you, your puppy will be resentful: "You dare to steal fishy fish! My flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers! "
In addition to self-defense and checking the post, light biting is more like a silent shout from a puppy to you. As societies, they long for their owner’s attention and company. If you focus on work or mobile games and don't have time to pay attention to the little guy, then it will bite you dissatisfiedly, as if protesting "Hey! Can you give me some attention?" It really feels like a child.
is a bit more exaggerated. The nibble may also be because it wants to monopolize your favor, leave its own unique flavor on you, and demonstrates sovereignty. At that time, the puppy will show off to other animals with pride: "! Look! This person is mine! "
Physiological needs are also a major reason for puppy's nibbles. Most people think that puppies are nibbling because they are in the teeth grinding period, but this is not the case. In addition to the fact that you do need to grind teeth when you are aged 3-6, even in old age or oral diseases, they also need to grind teeth to relieve discomfort.
As the masters, we don’t even know this. The little guy is so sad! He can only ask us for help by nibbling. So don't underestimate this action too much. There may be a silent shout from the puppy behind it.
Since nibbling is not aimless, we must learn to get along with it even more. During the teeth grinding period, you might as well prepare some teeth grinding snacks or toys for your puppies to meet their physiological needs. However, we must also resolutely stop it from borrowing our hands and feet to grind our teeth, otherwise it is easy to develop bad habits.
For elderly and weak dogs, we should pay special attention to their oral and digestive system health. Choose dog food that is easy to digest and moderately hard to avoid burdening their gums and stomach.
If you unfortunately suffer from oral disease, you should treat it as soon as possible and brush your teeth regularly to ensure oral hygiene. For some lazy owners, you might as well prepare some tooth-cleaning snacks to let the puppy grind his teeth and eat them by moving his mouth.
As for those puppies who want to monopolize you, check you, or simply want to attract your attention, the most fundamental solution is to give enough care and companionship.
Please spend more time with them to play and exercise, or tell some interesting stories to let the little one feel the warmth and care from you. As long as the owner treats it with care and fully understands the unique language in the puppy's heart, they will naturally no longer express themselves by biting.
Of course, if the puppy is really making trouble for you and is unreasonable, then you have to steadily rebuke it. Say in a firm and friendly tone: "Bad dog, don't bite people!" and stick to it until it changes this bad habit. Although the puppy is cute, the education of naughty children is also a big project!
Careful and considerate owners, have you already understood the mystery behind the puppy's nibbles? A seemingly ordinary little action actually contains the little guy's most sincere thoughts. Listen and observe them carefully, and you will find that the relationship between us and dogs is deeper and more subtle than we imagined.
