What household has uot at some time
had a puppy, and what woman has not
been bothered by its chewing every
thing within reach? As soon as our
puppies begin to want to chew any
thing we furnish them with a chewing
stick, for the same reason that we give
a baby a rubber ring. This stick Is sim
ply a part of a broom handle about ten
inches in length. Every time he chews
anything else he is punished and then
given the stick, and he soon learns to
chew that and nothing else. We had
one puppy who would even whine for
It if It was where he couldn't get It.
