I always joke to my husband we should forget toys and just buy Cali a block of wood. |
Try clear deodorant rubbed on the wood surfaces. Works great for us and lasts MUCH longer than the sprays. |
OMG!!!!!!! You guys, I am lmao. My babies do that also. They even chew the fire wood. I don't get it??????? I have the same problem. Baseboards, coffee table, walls. Of course they are better now that they are older, but still do it every now & again. I guess that is a good name for them "termites" too funny. Isn't it weird that they have the same traits? Even though they are termites I wouldn't give them up & I still want another one!!! |
try bitter apple or tabasco sauce rocky is a big termite too. i love the term. i spray bitter apple each day where he has started. his favorite place (my new bathroom cabinets) i place a 2 piece extention of an x-pen around so he can't get at it. of course then he found new spots so i move the x-pen 2 piece to the favorite du jour and spray everywhere else. if my real kids did that i would ring their neck! with him i just kind of smile :rolleyes: michelle |
Trixie chews on the window sill in the bathroom. I tried apple spray, but it didn't work. I tried red pepper, but she liked it and just ate it! :eek: So now instead of exposed, chewed brown wood, it has a red-pepper tint! :rolleyes: I tried buying extra toys and chews, but she just buries those! :confused: Let me know if you find anything that works! :D |

Liquid dishsoap (not for the dishwasher) works great. The lady who I get alot of antique furntiure from told me to do this. It won't harm the furniture and Maddie had one taste and never touched wood again. |
My Mignon hasn't started on wood yet (5 months) but seems to love cement! She will lie on the patio and gnaw away at the stucco on the side of the house. I've asked my husband to check and see if our insurance covers "dog eating house"! :yelrotflm |
All of the corners are gnawed on in our NEW home. Chattie and Chizzie did their part to "break it in" and wear off the new. Since they have chewed off the corners, they don't bother them any more. Must have been a passing phase. |
You all have some good ideas, thanks so much! Hopefully I can get her to stop eating the doors off the house. :eyetearss |
You know, I've heard all the stories vitamin deficiencies, boredom, attention getting technique, but you want to know what I really truly believe--- Sometimes they just like the taste of the wood and the feel of it crunching in their back teeth. |
btw you could replace all of the wood doors with metal ones and put plastic guards on all of the moulding. |
Why is that! All the nice toys we buy, and they like wood and paper better???? Yorkies!!! Gotta Love Them!!! :D :D :D :D |
some one on here suggested the deodorant long ago and i tried it.. it does work. (and cheap too!) |
