Let’s find out why puppies always bite their owners’ feet!

I believe many pet owners have had the experience of having their hands and feet bitten by dogs. Do you know why dogs like to do this? If you don’t understand, you are not qualified as a master. Come and take a look.

1. Teeth replacement period

Puppies usually undergo tooth replacement at about three to four months. Since there will be discomfort in the mouth, they will bite the owner's feet and furniture or shoes to relieve the discomfort. At this time, the owner can prepare teething sticks or teething toys for the dog, such as chewing gum, bone chewing sticks, etc., to relieve the discomfort when the dog's teeth fall out, and to prevent the dog from biting furniture or shoes.

2. Practice hunting

Dogs naturally hunt, especially puppies, which are more lively and active than adult dogs. Therefore, when the owner's feet move, they will use their feet as prey to capture and bite. In this regard, owners can prepare long, strong and soft toys to specifically interact with puppies and practice their biting skills.

3. Boredom

If the owner has not played with the dog for a long time, the dog feels bored and will bite people's feet in order to attract the owner's attention. At this time, the owner should play and interact with the dog more to enhance the relationship between each other and consume the dog's excess energy, so that the dog will not bite people's feet again.
