| Chewing on my clothes! Help :( Suzi is 11 months old , and has been chewing/suckling on my clothing I get her to stop the behavior then she goes right back to it! Any ideas on how to get her to stop the behavior? She started it after I was sick in the Hospital... I give her bully sticks which she loves, however has not stopped her from putting holes on the end of my pants and sweat jackets

| I have 6 and I can tell you that I just learned to make sure everything is put away. I cannot count the number of times I have come home with company in tow and walked into a foyer with chewed up undies laying there or a dog tangled in a bra that they pulled out of the clothes hamper. They just like our smell.

| Actually, Suzi chews on clothes while were wearing them! As soon as you sit on the couch she grabs a hold LIttle stinker.. I wonder if this is a stress reliever or something to that nature... we do our best to correct the behavior, but still find that she tears into them..

| My oldest dog, charlie, chewed big holes in my son's clothing once. My son worked at a fast food place, and the clothes were really nasty. After that episode, nothing the yorkies chew on can compare. Oh yea, except for the time that charlie ate my sons shoes. YUKKKKK. charlie is a beagle/basset cross, so nothing fazes him.
