I think she might get a bored at home. We both work, but I have my brother in law in the house when we work from 8-5. We give her chew toys, comfy bed, , turn on radio stations, etc... but the wee-wee pad chewing is driving us nuts.

I am thinking of putting a cone, just for a while for training her not to chew.
Any success stories on how to handle this chewing problem?

It usually is caused by boredom. Some things that can help, but are not foolproof are taping the pad down, using a frame holder for the pad or changing to washable potty pads.

Good luck!
