Wink Same thing here!

Funny but we have the same problem with my 5 month old yorkie. Percy gets daily walks, we play with him, got lots of toys and just today he doesn't like his bullysticks anymore. He's been chewing the leg of our dining table and chews his pad. Ugh! The word no is already a played out word for him.. I've read somewhere that you can make strange noises to distract them. So what i do is whenever he begins chewing his pad, i shake a can full of coins, other times i slap the wall with a hard paper like catalogs and stuff. i know its silly but it seems to be working. Sometimes i slap his pad to let him know that i don't like what he's doing. At first he barks at me, like a child talking back to me, it makes me crack up but i have to be firm so i don't back away from him. As soon as he realizes that im serious then that's the time he stops and goes away. Im a stay at home housewife so we spend the whole day together. I love him so much that i want him to grow up well disciplined. I think he has so much energy to unleash that's why they do all sorts of things. I think we just need to be more patient with them
