Best Products for a Teething and Chewing Puppy

The Teething Stage: Why Puppies Chew

When puppies begin teething, it can be a tough time for both pup and owner. The discomfort of new teeth pushing through leads to excessive chewing as they try to soothe their sore gums. But without the right outlets, your puppy may turn to your shoes, furniture, or even your hands.

Biting and mouthing are completely natural — but owners need to guide pups toward safer, more suitable chew options.

What Makes a Good Puppy Teether?

Before diving into products, here are a few key features to look for:

• Gentle materials — softer rubber or fabric designed for puppy teeth.

• Textured designs — ridges and bumps massage gums and add stimulation.

• Fillable or freezable — frozen toys bring extra relief and fun.

• Right size — safe for your pup’s mouth and jaw strength.

• Supervised use — always monitor playtime to prevent accidents.

At Be More Bob we have harder chews that can be introduced from 12 weeks onwards, and always under supervision.

Puppy Chewing Tips

• Rotate toys and chews to keep interest high.

• Freeze KONGs or LickiMats for extra soothing power.

• Teach bite inhibition by pausing play if your pup bites your hand or clothing.

• Avoid extra-hard chews and always follow the age guidance on the packet.

• Always supervise chew time for safety. NEVER leave your puppy with a chew. If you want something to put in their crate or leave the with, use a rubber Kong toy.
