| Bitter Apple Anyone? We finally got some Bitter Apple spray at the petstore the other day, and can I just say... **PHEW** Thank goodness! He had been chewing up the baseboard in our dining room. And on the bottom part of the couch he was ripping the fabric off. And now.... nothing! I am so glad, I hate feeling like I am having to tell him to stop over and over. And trying to get his attention to do something else only worked for a few minutes. Last edited by Meg; 06-13-2005 at 08:12 AM. |

| If you get in a pinch and run out of Bitter Apple, then use concentrated lemon juice. It works great too. Also, cheap spray deordant is very good.

| Coco hates bitter apple when i do a tiny squirt in her mouth. She will lick it right off if it's on my hands and feet (her favorite chew toys) but when I spray a drop in her mouth she gets the message. She also recognizes the bottle. So when she bites REALLY hard, I first give her a warning by showing her the bottle. Most of the time she will start licking as if to say, "who? me? I wasn't the one biting." If the warning isn't taken seriously I gently press on the spray thing and a drop gets on her tongue. I feel bad but she bites REALLY hard. I almost cried yesterday because she bit my nose so hard (just had surgery 4 months ago).
