oh the chewing...! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

ok so chopper, my 3 month old yorkie has a big case of the puppy chews!
now he doesnt go around chewing furniture or anything like that luckily.. but he goes straight for my husband and i! he loves to chew on our fingers, toes, any body part he can get ahold of! im thinking that this will pass as he loses his puppy teeth?
he has lots of chew toys, hard and soft, and we lightly scold him when he is biting on us and wont stop when we tell him too.

now our 2 year old female yorkie, molly, never went through this.

just wondering if anyone had any tips for how they got their yorkie to stop biting?
thanks

My Choco was obsessed with chewing on our toes. We bought him this chill bone from Petsmart. It's like this canvas bone in pink or blue that you pour water on and stick in this special bag and throw it in the freezer. After about a week with that he was so done with my toes it was crazy!!! Good luck.

One word: Bully sticks. Ok, that was two words. But seriously, they are awesome. They keep Riley busy for hours. He just loves to chew away at them.

It will pass and it is normal. There are things you can do to bring an end to it quicker. I just posted my tips on this thread:
