But whichever strategy you choose, everyone agrees that the timing must be precise. It is very difficult for a dog to make an appropriate association and learn from the reprimand or reward otherwise.]]> http://www.americanbluelacyassociation.com/blog/?feed=rss2&p=1025 0 http://www.americanbluelacyassociation.com/blog/?p=1028 http://www.americanbluelacyassociation.com/blog/?p=1028#comments Wed, 21 Jul 2010 04:55:03 +0000 lacygamedog http://www.americanbluelacyassociation.com/blog/?p=1028

The first baby teeth, sometimes referred to as 'milk teeth,' erupt from the gumline around four weeks of age. These teeth are small and very sharp. They may scratch the nipples, resulting in discomfort to the nursing mother. By about six weeks of age, the baby teeth are sufficiently painful to the mother's nipples to cause her to begin to wean the puppies from the nursing process.]]> http://www.americanbluelacyassociation.com/blog/?feed=rss2&p=763 0
