We had a German Shepherd who swallowed rocks, big ones, it cause a lot of problems and pain. So needs to be watched. In the end we had to use a muzzle, when out for walks, to stop this. Even while walking, she'd scoop a rock up and swallow. Some 4" long.
Actually about the bitter apple-- you have to apply it when you catch them (obviously as they back away) and if they try to bite it, lick it or pick it up they'll feel the taste. Apparently once it dries up it's not effective or as effective. At least with sasha it only worked when it was still wet.
