Help with teething

Orion's back teeth are coming in and I need suggetsions on what to give him to chew on. He has several different rawhide chewies but he likes to chew on the corner of his crate more than anything. He isn't really hurting it...but I would rather he chew on something else...I gave him a nylabone that I had put in the freezer for a few hours as I thought the coldness would sooth his gums...he chewed on it for a few minutes but then went back to the crate.

    Ice!!!


    Mika had a terrible time with teething. She couldn't eat a thing, she was in such pain! To this day, she prefers Ice to any other treat! I guess it was super soothing for her. I also put some rope toys in the freezer, but nothing did the trick like ice.

    I second what sujewel says, we soak in water then freeze a washcloth or sock (one that you don't care about) and let them chew on that - they love it!

    I did the washcloth think also, especially when there was bleeding.
