Your dog might even suffer a loss of appetite for a few days and it’s normal. Just make sure you give it plenty of water to drink to maintain its level of hydration.
It is not to say that you should not let your puppy chew at all. In fact, giving them chewing toys are about the best things you can do for your pup at this stage and help ease them through their teething period.
