Hello everyone,
Just wondering if any of you have had any issues with your puppies eating grass in the garden?
By grass, I also mean daisies, dandelions, dried leaves, blossom, small stones, moss, twigs.
He is 8 and a half weeks old, we have had him for three days, and he's only just started this last night... and every time we've been out today he's been sampling the garden, quite literally!!
I've tried 'No!', I've tried clapping, I've tried distracting him with running and training commands and treats, but he always reverts back to eating the garden as soon as we give him a second to spare. And then I have to wrestle the jaws to get the offending item!
My fiance thinks a quick squirt of a water-pistol might be the answer... but I don't think I could do that to him!?!
Any tips?
