Here's a great solution for the electrical cords. It's a product called Critter Cords -- a clear plastic sheath that goes over the electrical cords that's infused with a citrus deterrant taste. They have worked wonders at my house, as my Archie was just fascinated with electrical cords. You can find them at

As for the biting, my little devil is also a problem biter. Nothing worked until the vet suggested that I simply put him down on the floor when he bites and tell hin No Bite! And then ignore him for 10-15 minutes, even turning my back on him. He has a long way to go with the biting issue -- but I HAVE seen some improvement in his behavior. He tends to bite less during regular activitiy -- but he still bites when he gets excited during play. I think it's just something you have to keep working on -- it may take a few more months. Good luck!
