Safe Puppy Chew's

[trt]

I bought one last week from Pets at Home for my 7 week old pup. It wasn't till I got home that it said on the packet that its for pups over 3 months old.

Anybody know of any I could buy for her, to stop her chewing everything in site?

We've used hide chews with no adverse effects and also the calcium bones (small) which they find fun. Sometimes the shops cover themselves by stating these sorts of things. When I look at what our retriever pups have eaten over the years in the garden, I think they can handle all sorts of things - within reason, of course!

My pups have bones, pigs ears, hide chews etc from 3 weeks old, the sooner they learn what they can chew the sooner they don't chew your furniture, shoes, etc. Also give her the middle of toilet/kitchen rolls, plastic milk bottles or drinks bottles, even cardboard boxes which she can chew and roll round the floor. Also old socks knotted together. Cheaper than toys and safe if you take off any tops etc. Pups need to chew to loosen their puppy teeth to get their adult ones through.
