When raising dogs, I believe pet owners have seen dogs chewing shoes. So why do dogs like to bite shoes so much? It should be due to the following reasons, you can pay attention to them.
1. Teeth Changing
Dogs usually start to change their teeth when they are three months old. During this period, their gums will be particularly itchy and painful, so they will like to chew on things. At this time, it is recommended that the owner not scold the dog too much, but can use teething sticks, dog chews and other items to help it grind its teeth.
2. Lack of trace elements
If dogs lack trace elements, they will obtain the missing trace elements in their own way, and chewing shoes is one of the ways. In addition to chewing shoes, such dogs will also eat grass, paper, poop, and wall dust. If this behavior is found in dogs, the owner must stop it in time, otherwise eating food indiscriminately can easily cause gastrointestinal discomfort in dogs, and they must supplement trace elements and other nutrients.
3. Boredom
Sometimes dogs feel bored because they are alone at home for a long time, and their abundant energy has nowhere to vent, so they will find things to play with and bite. Therefore, owners must take time to accompany their dogs. They can also prepare more toys for their dogs to play with. Once their physical strength is exhausted, their dogs will naturally become well-behaved at home.
4. Missing the owner
Because the owner's smell is in the shoes, which will make the dog feel friendly and familiar. Therefore, when the dog misses the owner, it will bite the owner's shoes or sleep on the owner's shoes.
