Cuteness and Teething

It’s a really good thing that puppies are very cute. If they weren’t, I really don’t think they would survive at all. My new puppy chews up the world as though it were nothing but a big dog bone. If there is anything within his reach, he will destroy it. He sadly chews up everything from carpet, to my retainers. He has also gotten ahold of my backpack and dirty laundry bin. He didn’t want what was in the bin, but the bin itself. I’ve found that yelling at him just doesn’t help, but acting as though I care very deeply about the item he has chewed and acting like this is the biggest loss in the world tends to work. Since I started being so over dramatic, my puppy has chewed up so much less.
