Re: Anti chew spray is tasty????

You guys are the best!

I got my bitter apple spray today and gave the furniture a good coating of it. Otto licked up some from the floor, pulled a face and promptly drank about a pint of water, he hasn't been near the furniture since!

He also hasn't tried to nip my toes since I sprayed them!

I think that's a terrible idea! Not the bitter apple - the putting it in their mouth. I would NEVER recommend making your hands near their mouth something unpleasant. What happens when you want to open their mouth/check their teeth/remove something?

The taste of the stuff that dripped onto the floor was plenty enough to put Otto off. I certainly didn't need to (and didn't) put it in his mouth to convince him it was nasty.

Nothing worked with my setter she even ate the plastic tray out of her crate once.
OMG that made me laugh - How did she eat the plastic tray? - some dogs are awesome x

I've tried Shaws and Bob Martin but as soon as I spray them on, Otto runs over and lickes them off then carries on chewing the furniture. I think I've got a sadist dog!
I always offer him a chew toy as an alternative but the furniture seems to taste batter, especially when I put anti-chew sauce on it!
Any help would be gratefully recieved.
lemon juice? never tried is so dont know if it would stain, it will definitely work though

Re: Anti chew spray is tasty????

I would sprinkle cayenne pepper on stuff I didn't want Kian to chew on. He took one sniff and a lick and never went back. It was actually funny to see his reaction after he tasted it.
