When correcting your dog, be concise. Don’t rant on to the dog about the thinks that he did wrong. Inform them of your disapproval and move on. You should also be certain that your voice is loud enough to get their attention, but also conveys seriousness.
Poor Diet

Make sure to give your puppy plenty of toys that are okay to chew, so that he isn’t tempted to chew other things that aren’t okay to chew. The right chew toys should be given to the pup immediately. If the puppy is suffering any pain from teething, freeze a wet washcloth for him or her to chew on.
You should not tie up multiple dogs where they can reach each other, no matter how friendly they are. Their chains could get tangled up and as they struggle to get free; there is a good chance the dogs can get injured. In the case that a large dog and small dog become entangled, the large dog’s rope or chain could cut off air circulation to the small dog, and it could be severely injured or die.
