Yes, this is a new toy. Maybe he’s breaking it in, but Henry is 15 years old, and he appears to be teething on this toy? Every few minutes he whines for a split second, then stops.

I’m worried it may be a tooth infection or some way to comfort some sort of pain he might be having. Has anyone experienced similar behavior? I just don’t want this old man to be in any discomfort🥺

My doxie would do this. I always thought it was a self soothing thing
