Maximus is still in the puppy chewing stage and one Sunday I left him out of his crate when we went to church and he chewed wall paper off my walls. |
The paste on some wallpapers is a starch substance, and is very attractive smell to dogs. I used Grannick's Bitter Apple spray on certain things Joey was attracted to, and it stopped the chewing. Some people report great success clear deodorant used for the same purpose.
