The biting behaviour will be there in puppy age It will reduce after 6-8 months of age And does the puppy sleep in the day time??

As the puppy is sleeping in the day time she may not be interested to sleep in the night So try to keep her busy or play with her in the day time so that she will sleep in the night

Dogs are naturally nocturnal, which means they remain active at night. You can keep the puppy stimulated after 6 pm, if you can keep him active around that time he'll sleep better at night. Puppy biting is very common at this age, it is happening because your pup is getting his first set of teeth. You can give him a toy to chew on or cold carrot and cucumber to help reduce irritation.

Hey Arpita, After the second dose of vaccination is done, you can also start training for Brownie. Training will help you understand and resolve her behaviour issues like biting and socializing, and will help her form good habits for pee and poop, and leash walking. Regular evening walks will keep her simulated and will ensure better sleep cycle.

Hi... My shihtzu is 4 months old and has been itching all over. His Skin looks nice and baby pink and cannot find any ticks or fleas on him since hes got so much hair. What could be the reason for itching under his belly and mainly on his neck. Cannot find any redness. Could it be dry skin in this weather. What can I do. I have bathed him once 15 days ago but hes been itching even before that .. though the itching has increased quite a bit. Can we use diluted ACV for such a small puppy to stop the itch.?? If so, what is the proportion and how often?

I found my 1 year old pet was scratching his ear, then noticed his ear was red and watery all over his ear. It's only on his right ear. Can I please know why this has happened? And what should I do? I have applied coconut oil for time being. I would sincerely appreciate, if I get any information which would help me. Thank you
