Training Tails: Puppy Biting – Why Those Little Teeth Hurt So Much, 4 March 2026

Puppy Biting – Why Those Little Teeth Hurt So Much If you’ve ever brought home a puppy, you’ve probably discovered something quickly… those tiny teeth are sharp, and puppies seem to use them on everything, including you. In this episode, we look at why puppies bite so much during their early months and why it’s actually a completely normal part of their development. From teething discomfort to play behaviour and learning about the world, those nips and nibbles are often how puppies explore and communicate. We’ll also talk about when puppy biting is normal, when it might be becoming a problem, and the simple ways owners can guide their puppy toward gentler behaviour without damaging the bond. If you’re raising a puppy and wondering whether the biting will ever stop, this episode will help you understand what’s really going on behind those tiny teeth. 🐶 Eve joins The Nightline wih Cheralyn Darcey on Wednesday nights. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
