My year old dog eats the furniture, mainly wooden stuff, how can I stop her?

Answer 1

Get some spray from a pet store that is designed to taste disgusting and also buy some toys that you can fill with treats to distract her from the furniture.

Answer 2

Well first of all be stern with her, "No, Fido!". Lol, try to catch her in the act and the tell her whats right and whats wrong. Then at the pet store they have a sray that u can use on furniture (that doesnt harm the wood) that tastes bad to dogs. So when ur dog tries to take a nibble of the wood, she will get a little surprise!! good luck!

Answer 3

My dog chewed all kinds of wood at that age ,she is now 2 years and 2 months and has stopped chewing the doors and her daytime outside kennel. The only wood she chews now and it is just a play toy is an old rolling pin which she takes to bed with her. Spray/paint on some jif lemon juice.

Answer 4

I have an English Mastiff and remember the chewing days well. We had about a dozen teething items that we would literally rotate constantly all day long. It was almost funny to see him go from something coarse to cut into his gums on purpose helping teeth get in, to something soft to alleviate the pain of it, to something frozen we would give him ( try frozen bananas and frozen carrots - keep the freezer stocked) and then to a nylabone again. We had frozen washcloths soaked in water, socks with ice cubes tied in them, and plush toys stashed everywhere and on hand. It sounds like a pain but it was more like a way of life. He honestly NEVER destroyed anything in our house because we were always giving him something he was allowed to chew. If he even looked at something he shouldnt have, we would reach to the side table and give him the dog chew toy instead and praise him. To this day, he LOVES bananas. It isnt forever but the chewing stage requires strategy and consistency - just be patient and have a chew toy arsenal to help you. You can almost make one from household items without even going to the store. Good luck with your big guy!

Answer 5

Spray vinegar on the items not the dog........give the dog appropriate things to chew that are not wood. Giving other wood chews will only confuse him.

Please be advised that most sprays purchased from pet stores do not work.
Another good one is Alum. Alum is a spice put in food, but dogs hate it. Make a thick paste and brush the areas you don't want him chewing.

Answer 6

there is a sour apple spray that you put on furniture legs and when the dog tries to bite the wood the sour apple taste will make her not want to chew on it anymore. But it doesn't work for all animals. Some just ignore it but its worth trying out.

Answer 7

In any given situation, focus on what you do want your dog to do instead of on whatever he’s doing wrong. Learn how to train your dog https://tr.im/uwPmA

For example, suppose that on many evenings, your young dog gets busy looking for trouble just as you’re digesting your dinner. He grabs a boot from the mat by the front door and gallops through the house with it. You yell at him and take it away. He grabs its mate. You yell and take it away. He heads for the kitchen and starts checking out the counters in case something tasty’s been left behind. You chase him away. And on and on, until you’ve lost your temper and torn out clumps of hair you can ill afford to lose.

Answer 8

Tie some Frankfurters around the legs.

Answer 9

JEWISH as a religion?

J=UI
E=E
W=M(M=IVI sealed together)
I
S=IS
H=8=2+6=26=7+15+4=G+o+d=GOD

Thus JEWISH shows IVI sealed together is GOd and if you continue to disobey GOD, then your hardships were deserved.

Answer 10

simple bitter spray from any good pet store and your local vets
