You could also try cord protectors that have a flavored coating that will deter chewing (available online and PetSmart). Some people have reported that the coating attracted their pet, so you will have supervise and test.

The most effective ways to stop chewing are training and keeping the cords out of reach.
Thank you, I will try the spray and look for the cord protectors as well. She went through and graduated 2 courses of training....perhaps it is time to contact the trainers before she hurts herself. I don't care about replacing the cords....but I can't replace Pickles.
