    A couple questions about BC pups..


    Okay, so Cali has been chewing on her tail lately. Not a lot, but just nibbling every now and then you know? Is that a or going to become a problem later on?

    And how fast on average do bc puppies grow?



    Thanks so much, buttercup132!

    Have you checked for fleas in that area? Is the skin in that area inflamed? If they nibbles with her front teeth it is a show of affection.

    She could just be itching.. but if she's doing it out of play, don't let her. It can become a serious problem. Some dogs will chew their tails right off! And Border Collies, being as compulsive as some come, would be likely to do that. Redirect her play on a toy if she's playing with her tail.

    Once BC pups hit 6 months, they really start to grow.... and FAST.
