From an early age, expose your puppy to having their mouths and feet handled. Always use words of encouragement when handling these areas — perhaps even use a common word so they associate the word with the action.
Answer:
When we want to look at our dog’s teeth we take her by the muzzle and say “teeth”, all the while giving encouragement to her. And now she will quite happily let you have a good look to ensure there’s nothing wrong.
