For teething puppies, softer chew toys are usually the best choice.
DuraPaw toys made from flexible rubber or designed for gentler chewing are a good fit for sore gums. Puppies want to chew to relieve discomfort, but they don’t need anything overly hard at this stage.
Look for toys that are easy to grip, slightly squishy, and sized for puppies rather than adult dogs. As always, it’s a good idea to supervise at first and see how your puppy chews, since teething habits can vary a lot.
Once adult teeth come in, you can gradually introduce firmer toys if needed.
