Look at your
house through your puppies
eyes. |
Keep
your shoes out of puppy's reach.
Just ask my daughter
Amanda how many shoes she went through?
Do not get mad at your
puppy, Get smarter!
Get it out of the
way.
 Puppies are
like babies they are naturally curious and they teethe. They will go
through a second teething period, and start chewing things again,
just when you thought it was over. Taking steps now can protect them
from hazzards and keep you possessions safe as well.
Puppies love to
chew. Make sure you have plenty of chew toys. If you
catch him chewing something else, say no in a firm voice and replace
it with his chew toy. Praise him when he start to chew the toy
for good behavior. This will teach the correct
behavior.
Houseplants
Many
cause a threat to your puppies health. Poisonus ones include
philodendron, English Ivy. Outside plants such as oleanders and yews
also are poisonous.
Electrical
Unplug, remove, or cover up electrical cords (we used
cardboard to cover them up behind desks where our puppy could get
into). If your puppy chews wires it can lead to severe burns,
electrocution or fires.
Toxins 
Keep
toxins away your pet's reach. Such items may include household
cleaners, specific types of plants, alcoholic beverages, chocolate,
and substances like antifreeze. Antifreeze is particularly dangerous
to dogs and cats alike. Even a small amount can be extremely toxic
and often pets don't realize the danger. And it tastes good
too.
There are a few foods that can give your
Chi some problems.
- Dark Chocolate - This is toxic to
dogs, and can kill your Chihuahua. Don't even give them tit bits
now and again, as the toxin in chocolate slowly, builds up in the
body over a period of time till it poisons them. There are many
doggy chocolates on the market they are a much safer and healthier
option.
- Onions - Do not get your dog onions
again this acts as a toxin and can make your Chihuahua very poorly
- Bones - Everyone knows about chicken
bone are bad for dogs, this is because they splinter and can
perforate the bowel.
