It’s up to you to let your puppy know what’s expected of him in the behavioral category. From his point of view, he’s in a constant state of having fun. He doesn’t know good from bad behavior unless you make the distinction. One of the most common dog behaviors you’ll want to curb is the biting puppy syndrome. Puppies enjoy chewing on everything, as any dog owner can affirm. The biting puppy may have an enjoyable session with your favorite slippers, a book or a tasty bone. He should certainly be able to enjoy his bone, but you’ve got to provide behavioral guidance that steers him away from your slippers or your current reading material.
