A dog will stop teething 2 to 4 weeks after they start teething. Giving them plenty of chew toys will help save your furniture from being destroyed. Puppies may chew on your hand because their teeth hurt. Say no in a stern voice, but don't get mad at them, instead give them a chew toy to chew on. As soon as they start chewing on the chew toy give them praise. Also ice cubes can help during the teething process. Some dogs find them fun to pay with, and they can help to numb the gums to help with the pain.

I used to wonder this too, however. This is a state of nipping, or "mouthing" which to a dog, is perfectly natural, and can be a sign of over-excitement, bad manners or the dog wants something from you. Train your dog that nipping isn't acceptable, or distract the dog with a toy. Never grab the dog's muzzle or otherwise punish it, as this could have an adverse effect.

He's teething. Give him a chewy bone before he discovers shoes.
