Prevent It In Puppies

The best fix is never needing one. Prevention starts the day your puppy comes home.

While your puppy chews, walk over and offer a trade — a better treat for the chew — then hand the chew right back. Giving it back is the magic part: it proves nothing good gets stolen.

Repeat this dozens of times across the first few months. You are wiring in a lifelong belief: a human coming close means a bonus, never a loss.
