These little ones definately can be pretty distigusting(sp) at times but, we love them just the same and wouldn't take anything for them.

Catch your baby in the act. If not...it is a puppy and they do such things. When Stomper was younger (he is now 9 months) he ate our walls, bite through our home theater system, ate all my bras (he still does this if I don't put them away!), shoes, etc. They do this!!! They like to chew when they are teething. Good luck.

My trainer said that we shouldn't let Copper play with tennis balls or toys made out of that material because it encourages them to chew the carpet. So now we only use rubber and squeaky balls.

I had some really cute little tennis balls that were just the right size for puppies.

the antipersipirant. I have suggested this to probably 500 owners since I saw it on Animal Planet's You Good Dog You show and it works. I use the clear stick antiperspirant on my rug edges (they loved to chew those, had to flip my rug around and put the chewed edges under the couch LOL), since I put it on the new edges, they don't touch it. Have used it on my wood armoire, coffee table, baseboards, etc. Only applied once in the past year and they do not touch it. One taste was all it took. Try it, cheap and it works.
