Answer #1

One of the problems with the bitter sprays, is that people skip an important step in the use of them…BEFORE you ever spray anything with apple bitter…You have to spray a small amount in the dogs mouth…He has to get a good taste of it…THEN proceed to spray carpet, chair legs, etc…the smell of it will keep the puppy off…

Now, this isn’t a substitue for doing exactly like amblessed is talking about…substituting the no no with a yes yes…First rule of thumb, however…PICK UP YOUR STUFF!! Don’t tempt them with things that are not theirs…I’ve haven’t lost anything to a puppy in years, simply because I have a “toy box” right in the living room…filled with different textures, shapes, noisey…soft…balls…bones…even a rubber bungie cord…When I see a pup eyeballing something they can’t have, I give them a toy from their box. They learn very quickly what is “theirs”, and what is not…

See the toy box in the picture…it’s just an apple crate that’s painted…

there is a huge selection of those sprays, you can get them anywhere, and they shouldnt make your puppy sick, so the best thing to make sure its safe is get the organic spray, which sontains green apple, and lemon. Cost is only on average 5

Answer #5

I found this info: Most anti-chewing bitter sprays are worthless. There is one I’ve had a fair amount of sucess with called Banguard. It’s made for keeping dogs from chewing their bandages, and if you can’t find it at the local pet store, your vet should be able to sell it to you. Spray any household objects your puppy is interested in chewing, including any you “catch” him chewing. For example, if you find your puppy chewing on a shoe, simply respond with a firm “no” and proceed to spray it with Banguard. Give it back and present your puppy with a nice, appealing substitute toy. Faced with a choice between a nasty, bitter shoe or chair leg vs. a treat stuffed chew toy, the pup should quickly discover which one he likes better.
