🐾 Pup-date: Puppy eating rocks 🐾🪨

At 12 weeks old,  I love chewing on everything (I am a puppy eating rocks or is it a rock eating puppy?). I am learning fast and testing the boundaries to see what I can get away with. 😏Dad gets frustrated because my nose is always to the ground, looking for a taste of nature. The vet says eating stones is a big no-no! 🐾 Sometimes though, it's all I can focus on at this age.

While it might seem like fun to me, those hard, crunchy rocks can cause all kinds of trouble in my belly—like blockages or even damage to my teeth and digestive system. They recommend keeping a close eye on me during outdoor playtime and redirecting my attention to safer chew toys. 🦴

If I swallow one, my humans should watch for signs like vomiting, not wanting to eat, or acting uncomfortable. If that happens, it's time to call the vet right away! In the meantime, lots of praise for chewing on the right things helps me learn what’s safe and keeps my curiosity in check. 🐕✨

My Labrador side makes me affectionate and eager to please

I look to my humans for guidance to make sure new things are safe.

my stocky build gave me a bit of that confident, protector vibe

As I am adapting to new places, I am always on the look-out to see what is going on around me.

I am always moving, seeking that "new" thing to eat!
